What happens at a FSP Meeting?
A. An FSP Meeting generally follows this format: Update of medical issues, appointments, changes in status; Strengths of child and family; Needs and concerns; Family-identified goal(s); Objectives (created by therapists or Family Support Worker with input from parents); Strategies; Plan. One person facilitates the discussion; another records. The family is given a copy of the notes of the meeting to take home with them. A typewritten formal report is created within two weeks and all participants sign it. The original copy is kept in the child’s file. Parents receive a copy. Other participants in the meeting may receive a copy with the parents’ permission.
