Whether temporary or permanent, the highly restrictive nature of home and hospital placements presents medical, emotional, and academic challenges for the student — so careful consideration must go into the decision.

Attorney Alisia St. Florian explains what constitutes “home/hospital instruction” versus “home as an educational placement,” as well as when each is and isn’t appropriate. Plus, you learn proper procedures to initiate each placement and get practical guidance to:

  • Respond to a parent’s request for home/hospital instruction
  • Discuss home as a possible placement at an IEP team meeting
  • Determine when home instruction is no longer warranted
  • Resolve differences with parents and decide when filing for due process is necessary
  • Help students with histories of school truancy and school phobias attend school
  • And more!
