Job description

The primary purpose of behavior assistant services (BAS) is to provide support in implementing the BASP created by the behavior analysis services provider. The assistant must maintain a copy of the plan. This includes assisting the certified behavior analyst in assessing the recipient, assisting in implementing new procedures in the presence of the behavior analyst, acting as a model for correct implementation for the recipient or the caregivers, or coaching caregivers to implement the behavior program. Unlike other services, the behavior assistant provider’s focus is working with the caregivers to provide them with the skills to execute the procedures as detailed in the behavior analysis services plan, rather than the provision of intervention directly with the recipient and to evaluate a caregiver’s maintenance of skills needed for behavior program implementation. Behavior assistant services can only be provided under the supervision of a behavioral services provider. Supervision should include observation of the behavior assistant working with the recipient, their caregivers, or other providers. The behavior assistant must maintain documentation signed by the behavior analyst providing supervision.

The behavior analyst can bill simultaneously for direct supervision of the behavior assistant. In the initial stages of treatment, the BAS provider can provide direct intervention with the recipient to help bring the identified behavior under control within a short period of time. However, thereafter, any direct intervention performed by the behavior assistant provider must be performed in the presence of caregivers and used as a training method.

In circumstances where there is need for re-training of parents, training of new staff due to turnover, and the periodic need for new interventions, the behavior analysis provider may provide additional intervention and training to address the current need. If there are needs for extensive training and support, a request for an extension or renewal of the service may be submitted.

In addition to training and systematically transferring the implementation of the plan to the caregivers, BAS also include monitoring of caregivers implementing the behavior plan, data collection, copying of forms and documents, maintenance of materials for data collection, and implementation of procedures, as well as communicating with the supervising behavioral services provider, in order to assist the behavior analysis services provider. In all instances of BAS, the daily progress notes must thoroughly document the recipient’s activities, as well as observations, data collection, and planning.
