ABR THERAPY REFERRAL 

Use this form for all therapy referrals.
This form must be submitted 1 business day before the child's 
therapy appointment.

This is NOT the form you use to type into.
This is a crib sheet of instructions for filling out the report.
The form you actually fill out is called type_incident.txt.
You can find it at: www.abrloggingandmining.com/forms/
or maybe on your desktop.


Wherever you see "TEXT_HERE" on the real form,
that is where you will type your information.
If appropriate, you may write 'none' on the real form
the 'TEXT HERE' appears on this crib sheet.

!!!!!
Don't mess with the '.br' thingys.
You can put in empty lines but you don't need them.
They will be removed from the output but will cause
a line break.
!!!!!


Don't forget: when you upload this into the web page,
choose "Therapy Referral" as the type,
AND select the therapist as the addressee.

TEXT_HERE

(-Helping others in order to feel good about himself-)
TEXT_HERE

List the main issues on which ABR and the boy are working
in order to make a big difference for his future.
"Your understanding" is your understanding of what the
treatment team as a whole have decided to work on.
That is usually decided in the treatment review staffings,
and should be documented in the treatment review report.
Your program director should also be providing that information
to the cottage in some written form.
In filling out the form, you only have to _list_
the two most important items,
because they are described in detail elsewhere.
