Determining Individual Support Needs

Introduction

On November 9, 2000 the following Principles and Recommendations arising from the Individual Needs Assessment Project were approved.

The principles for determining individual support needs and the recommendations for improving PDD's approach are the results of a two year project and consultation on the issue of assessing individual needs.

The Principles for Determining Individual Support Needs have now been added to the Community Inclusion Supports Framework to guide approaches to determining individual need. It is expected that all community board processes related to the determination of individual need and decision-making on support requirements will have considered these principles and are judged to be congruent with them.
