Assessment - Tech Points

Prioritize Activities

	Is there a primary area(s) of concern?
	In what order should the concerns be addressed?
	Are there deadlines that must be considered in addressing concerns?
	Are DRS services dependent on this need being met and is this concern essential for employability?

For individuals who are clearly going to need assistive work technology services, it may be helpful to develop a "technology needs portfolio".

Information can be collected on technology needs that may extend throughout an individual's rehabilitation, and may include needs that are not only work related. This could be especially useful with transition cases where a school district and different potential employers may be involved.

The "portfolio" could be used to identify future needs and to designate responsibilities for the consumer or other groups, such as school personnel, to update and add information.
