Is there a job that is more than bcba?
Is there a job that’s sort of like ABA but where someone can go into different schools. Like just observe each kid for like a week and provide teachers with a little bit of information like ABC data on why behaviors are occurring and some ways to fix them and give them resources. Like for example I’ve seen kids where a the school is at a loss with them and all they need a token board and a sensory box with choices.
I just feel like in my years in ABA I’ve seen so many kids that just get “lost in the system” and very simple things could change so much for them at least kids who don’t get services. BCBAs usually only work on their caseload I’m assuming like 6-20 kids. And I know there’s resource special needs teachers but all the ones I’ve met don’t have ABA experience and are just as lost with what to do with the kids as the teachers are.
I’ve just heard of so many families that just want someone to come in and sit with their kid for a few days and give them a few pointers but don’t or can’t get full services. Is this a thing or a job that can be made? If not, I think it should be.
