ATTENDANCE

As a partner with the JCDC Staff, you are the person who has the greatest impact on your child’s development and progress. Please help us to serve you by keeping your appointments as scheduled. Please notify the program at least 24 hours prior to the appointment if you are unable to meet at the pre-arranged date and time. If you do not notify the program within 24 hours you will be billed for that visit when appropriate.This does not include emergency cancellations due to sickness, accidents, or other conditions not within your control. Please call 801-567-8510 to change or cancel appointments.

Action To Be Taken Following Three “No Show” Appointments:

A “no show” is when a family has an appointment they can’t keep and they don’t contact us to cancel. After three (3) consecutive months of “no shows” for scheduled visits (other than absences or emergencies), the following will apply:

· An IFSP meeting will be scheduled to determine if the family wants ongoing services.
· If the family does not attend the scheduled IFSP meeting, a letter will be sent to the family requesting that they contact the JCDC if they want further services.
· If the family does not contact the JCDC for continuation of services, the child will no longer receive IFSP services, but will be placed on a tracking and monitoring system.

Many of our children are very vulnerable to illness; therefore, the JCDC follows a very strict health policy. If your child has any of the following, please call to cancel your session for that day:

*fever * vomiting *severe cough *unusual rashes *eye infection *draining ear *diarrhea * itchy body or scalp *excessive nasal discharge
