SHARING YTP CLIENT PROGRESS NOTES WITH VOCATIONAL REHABILITATION COUNSELORS ON A REGULAR BASIS
As a best practice, YTP Transition Specialists should share YTP client progress notes electronically with their Vocational Rehabilitation Counselor (VRC) partners on a systematic and scheduled basis. Every 2 months would be a good schedule to consider.
The electronic (e.g. email, progress notes in document form attached to an email, etc.) sharing of progress notes allows the VRC to copy and paste those notes into their ORCA system (OVRS's data management system). It also fosters communication, teamwork, collaboration, "next step" thinking in terms of plan development, readiness for employment, and other benchmarks along the path of rehabilitation that VRCs are required to report on.
