EI Question - Changing Therapists
How does one go about chaning one of the therapists in EI? It's not working out with his OT. Do I contact the Serice Coordinator? The paper seems like that mostly had to do with the evals. Do I contact the agency? I remember getting something from the agency but can't find it and don't remember seeing a 'point person' on the sheet.

I believe you could call the service coordinator and she could handle it for you. She will then contact the therapist and/or the agency.

Re: EI Question - Changing Therapists
agree with all.....call the service coordinator. I've also called the agency directly and that was effective as well.

Re: EI Question - Changing Therapists
Since we are started evals, etc.. The Nassau EI coordinator told me that any issues should be addressed to her. She is my point of contact.

I just changed my OT. It took 3 weeks for them to find a new therapist. (Not through EI)
Our EIOD is very good. The few times I have called her she called me back the same day.
Ask them to fax any paperwork. That should make it go faster.
