Instructions for screen reader users. Use your arrow keys and tab to navigate this interactive flowchart. After the first decision point, the tree splits into two main branches. The first branch is Documenting Devices. The second branch is Documenting Services. Each branch includes decision points which are yes or no questions to guide you through the decision tree.

[[Back Home->Home]]<h1>Is an AT Evalutation Required?</h1>
<p>If the IFSP team has determined that AT may be needed for the child, an
AT evaluation is required unless the IFSP team determines that the child's
existing AT device is appropriate, or a recent AT evaluation was sufficient.</p>
<p>Sometimes the child may already own the AT, and sometimes it is a new
solution that is being explored. For low- and mid-tech AT solutions, an AT
evaluation can often be done by a member of the early intervention (EI) team.
If the needs are more complex, outside expertise for the evaluation may be
required. This determination needs to be made by the IFSP team.</p>
<p>An AT evaluation is considered an AT service.</p>
