What is it? How do I use it?
The Grand and Jackson County road maps for developmental, vision, hearing and oral health are documents representing the process of screening, referral, and follow-up across the entire community. It describes when each type of professional conducts screenings, how to make appropriate referrals post-screening, what screening entities can expect as follow-up from referral agencies once a referral is made, and the messaging that families receive at each step in the community process. Where did it come from? The road maps are living, ever-evolving documents generated by ongoing input from stakeholders in the community. In 2010, a group of health care and early childhood professionals came together to express concern about local practices surrounding screening, referral, and follow-up:
