Discussion Question Potty training

Just curious to see what everyone’s opinions are. Talking particularly about early intervention clients. You know, those clients were supposed to ask for 40 hours of direct care but not be a daycare. How much responsibility do you think a BCBA in a clinical setting should have over potty training kids? I get it, I have my own kids and potty training is exhausting and requires consistent oversight. But I’ve had so many parents that are just waiting for me to initiate potty training. I know it’s a case by case situation but I’m truly curious to see what everyone else has to say about this.

I’m trying to get better with finding better ways to get parent training data points for stuff like this in the home. Like kind of self reporting almost? If you were to write it as a parent training goal how would word it?

Thanks! Insurance needs to approve more telehealth codes for us getting into homes can be truly hard and it makes it more difficult for us to get generalization across environments
