Workshop Summary
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and attention deficit disorder (ADD) symptoms may begin in childhood and continue into adulthood. ADHD and ADD symptoms, such as hyperactivity, impulsiveness, and inattentiveness, can cause difficulties at home, school, work, or in relationships. You will learn how to spotlight successes for your child and develop accommodations and interventions.
Children in school systems with healthcare concerns should have additional documents to support their medical needs. An Individualized Education Plan (IEP) should include an Individual Healthcare Plan (IHP) and an Emergency Action Plan (EAP) for their specific needs while in the school environment. This presentation will identify what these documents are, what information should be included in them, and will review sample options.
