This is in part because Josh is refusing to go out with his new worker, so she either needs to be giving him some communication therapy (for which she would need at least a plan, hopefully some materials) or else we need to figure out why Josh won't let us get him dressed so she can take him out. I could force the issue the same way we did with getting him to school (see 5/21, below), but I don't want to set it up as something for him to fight (oppositional behavior).		* '''2009-08-05''' Josh has an appointment for a psych consultation with [http://www.mainstreetclinical.com/id93.html this guy] on August 21.

* [[2009-12-01 webmail to Residential Services NC]]
* VO approved the service (miracle!), but then the original home backed out. Touchstone found another home, which gave Josh a trial overnight -- and then backed out as well. Touchstone now says that Josh needs Comprehensive CAP. So we have about 20 days left on an approval for which we had to fight tooth and nail, but we can't get anyone to provide the service.
* '''2009-10-13''' Josh's Case Manager submitted the latest Residential Services application to [[ValueOptions]]. The previous request was denied in 14 days, and that was with some amount of hold-up because of the insurance numbers changing ([[/Medicaid|Medicaid]] invalid, tried to use Health Choice), so we ''should'' be hearing back by the 27th.
* '''2009-09-18''': Josh's Medicaid card arrived in the mail; resuming the hunt for a group home
* '''[[2009-09-01 Behavior Plan for Josh Smith]]''': has good suggestions in a few places, but doesn't always have its facts straight
