A pilot study of the utility of a hospital-based school program for pediatric patients with cardiac diagnoses
Similar to previous studies, these patients had high rates of IEPs/Section 504 Plans in place and continued to receive school recommendations through the HBSP. A high use of the HBSP was seen in the total number of encounters and communications (i.e., submitting to the school of record requests for classroom placement changes via medical homebound). Working with the HBSP provided access to information, formal support recommendations, and communication between medical and school settings in the form of changes in school status.
