Description

Description (Service) Service acts as a bridge in the transition of client specific care needs and management strategies across systems of care.

Service provides a transition plan focused on reducing the responsive behaviours so that the individual can successfully move from one living situation to another.

A behaviour nurse works with the client, family and all care partners in the clients current environment and their destination environment.
