Develop a consultation program “pre entry”
Stand up in staff meetings, notify staff of your program
Research on effectiveness of consultation
Mostly self report “satisfaction with process”surveys
Legislative mandates scientifically based interventions or approach
Research also needs to be about the impact of strategies on a certain skill, setting, and population on outcome
