The following occurred:

·         Called staff to make sure we discussed the batting cage at the next team meeting to ensure the guardian was ok with it. Staff agreed and told me this was something they had thought of because they use an old mop handle and a ball. John bats at the balls staff tosses.

·         Sent a follow up email to my supervisors about the batting cages to make that way to proceed with them.

·         Updated John’s EFS and sent the team a current copy. A long with next week’s calendar.

·         Met John at his apartment and took him to his Voc Rehab appointment. At the appointment we met with a lady from the Barre office along with his voc rehab counselor, and her assistant in Burlington. They asked John some routine questions about what he would like to do for work and what skills he could bring in. She set up a follow up appointment to give John a cognitive assessment at his apartment for the following Friday at 10:30. After the assessment we will have a better understanding at what level John’s cognitive skills are at. She did let me know that this cognitive assessment would not take as long as one say from doctor Smith. But as far as she could see in John’s records he has never had one. John was very excited about the outcome of the appointment. We were also able to get her to fix the voucher from John to get free bus passes. 

·         Completed weekly paperwork.
