A life care plan is a dynamic document based upon published standards of practice, comprehensive assessment, data analysis, and research, which provides an organized, concise plan for current and future needs, with associated costs, for individuals who have experienced catastrophic injury or have chronic health care needs. IALCP - International Academy of ners.) Through the development of a comprehensive, a clear, concise, and sensible presentation of the complex requirements of the patient are identified as a means of documenting current and future medical needs for individuals who have experienced catastrophic injury or have chronic health care needs. The goals of a comprehensive are to: improve and maintain the clinical state of the patient; prevent secondary complications; provide the clinical and physical environment for optimal recovery; provide support for the family; and to provide a disability management program aimed at preventing unnecessary complications and minimizing the long-term care needs of the patient. 1 Evaluation by Developmental / Behavioral Psychologist X now, with repeat evaluations at ages 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18 and 21. Evaluate and formulate treatment plan. $250 - $500 Act.) As indicated in the diagnostic clinical practice guidelines, other conditions commonly accompany ADHD in children.

This schedule is an estimate, pending an actual evaluation and program design. 5 X / week for 2 weeks (40 hours); reduced to 3 X / week for 10 weeks (30 hours); then 1 X / week for 8 weeks (8 hours) for a total of 78 hours initially. Once the program is in place and the parents and teachers are trained, monitoring will be needed 1 X / month for 6 months. Followed by 6-10 sessions / year to implement changes in the program and train his family and new teachers. One of the most useful strategies a parent can undertake to improve harmony in the home is to learn ways to modify the child's behavior in a manner consistent with school focused behavior modification. This training can be obtained through formal classes, books or counseling. Source: Institute for Clinical Systems Improvement (ICSI).

Costs covered under PL (IDEA) with appropriate supplemental therapies. Special education can be offered to age 21 if deemed necessary, however, it is my feeling that Kobe will be transitioned out of school by age 18. NOTE: Kobe will require a highly structured environment and a small classroom setting with preferably no more than eight to ten students to a class. If he remains within the public school system, he should be in a program for the learning disabled with a resource room with mainstreaming. The alternative is a public school setting for children with ADHD and behavioral disorders that could then transition into a vocational high school program. However, in light of the severity of Kobe s problems, a private school setting designed for ADHD children should be considered. 12 Table 2 Copyright page 6

10 Medications Medications Annual cost To be prescribed by treating physician NOTE: Kobe is not currently on any medications. He will more likely than not, require medication to help control his behavior, as he enters school and particularly as he enters adolescence. The cost of such medications will have to be determined after he is evaluated by a psychiatrist and medications are prescribed. Examples of probable medications are Ritalin; Anti-anxiety Drugs (Valium, Buspar, Thorazine, etc.) and Antidepressant Drugs (Prozac, Zoloft, Wellbutrin, etc.) Stimulant medications are considered first-line therapy as they are effective in 70 to 80% of children with ADHD. Source: Institute for Clinical Systems Improvement (ICSI). Diagnosis and management of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in primary care for school age children and adolescents. Bloomington (MN): Institute for Clinical Systems Improvement (ICSI); 2003 Mar. 66p. Stimulants are the first-line treatment and have proven benefit to most people. If one class of stimulant fails or has unacceptable side effects then another should be tried (see Tables 5-7 of the original guideline document). Atomoxetine (Strattera ) is a secondary choice. (One reported side effect is suicidal thinking.). Other medications may be used alone or in combination depending upon the ADHD type or with comorbidity profile: e.g., Alpha-II agonists (clonidine, guanfacine) with hyperactivity or impulsivity; bupropion (over age 8) with comorbid depression; risperidone (atypical antipsychotic) for aggression (see Table 8 of the original guideline document). Tricyclic antidepressants may rarely be used to treat ADHD; selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) may be useful for depressive disorders. (There is a reported increase of suicidal ideation for SSRIs but SSRIs are not used to treat ADHD.) Source: University of Michigan Health System. Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder.

11 Home Care / Facility Care Pre-Age 18: Respite Care 1 night / week for 4 hours and 1 weekend / month for 36 hours to age 12; thereafter only 1 weekend / month for 36 hours Prevent parental burn out $13 - $18 $8,320 - $11,520 for 640 hours / year to age 12; thereafter $5,616 - $7,776 / for 432 hours / year to age 18. NOTE: Respite care is used to ensure continued implementation of the behavioral program and structured environment while giving parents a break. Weekend respite care is continued from age 12 to age 18, because of the high risk of leaving a behaviorally involved adolescent unsupervised overnight. Caregiver burnout is a state of physical, emotional and psychological exhaustion that is accompanied by a shift in attitude from positive and caring to negative and apathetic. Most underlying causes of caregiver burnout come directly from the nature of caregiving, which is a balancing act between tasks and responsibilities on one hand and self-esteem, coping skills and social support on the other. If that balance gets tipped, the increased emotional pressure can overwhelm even the most dedicated caregiver. Source; Sherman, James r., Ph.D., Preventing Caregiver Burnout.
