Elder Care Planning for cerebral palsy cases where a claim or court proceeding is also involved: how the family and fiduciary care plan is prepared, what it documents, and how it is used alongside the claim.
Plans address orthopedic and neurology follow-up, spasticity management including botulinum toxin and baclofen pump care, orthotics and seating replaced with growth, therapies, communication devices, home accessibility, transportation, attendant care, and adult residential or supported-living options.
A written care plan organized by care category and time period, with a documented cost source for each item, and, when separately retained for the proceeding, testimony to the plan.
Higher classification levels generally mean more attendant care, more complex equipment, and more frequent medical follow-up. The plan states the child's current level and the clinical basis for projecting future needs.
The plan documents educational supports the child needs and distinguishes services provided by public programs from those the family must fund privately, so counsel can address collateral-source questions in the jurisdiction.
At major developmental transitions or at least every few years while the child is growing, and again before the transition to adult services.
