He also seemed to shy away from any customer that walked by him when he was working. It was not observed not reported that Job had any behavioral difficulties that would impact his work.

>www.dpw.state.pa.us >www.dhs.pa.gov 37

Situational Assessment Data

General observations of participant’s response to environment before, during and after job trial

Job and tasks (with specific steps involved) Data: of independence across opportunities Other important information that highlights participant's

performance and skills associated with work environment and the job/ task

>www.dpw.state.pa.us >www.dhs.pa.gov 38

Job Trials/ Situation Assessments Expectations

- *3 completed- They are NOT to be completed at any of the following:

• The Employment provider’s setting or location• Workshop• Or sheltered employment situation

- Need to align with the participant’s preferences

Situational Assessment Example• ☒ Situational Vocational Assessment: Location St. Marys Track and Field, St. Marys• Brief synthesis: At St. Marys Track and Field (Saturday from 6a-1p), Christos was on the managerial team. At first, he was not

pleased with the responsibilities associated with this, but became excited when he realized the majority of his work would beconducted outside as long as the weather was nice. The work environment required him to concentrate a lot more then City Cycle since it was outside where he enjoyed looking around and could be distracted by the louder sounds around him. His first task was to collect all of the garbage from the 6 outside garbage cans, combine the bags, and then take them to the dumpster. The first 3 times, he had forgotten his next steps and had to go back to the team leader and ask him what he should do next. On the third time, theteam leader had Christos write down the steps on a piece of paper. On the 4th garbage can, he was prompted to read his list whenhe asked what he should do next and then was able to complete garbage 5 and 6 independently. Finally, he combined the bags and took them to the dumpster with no prompts needed because he was using his list.

• The next task was Christos identified as his least favorite: cleaning out the three bathrooms and stocking them with paper towels, toilet paper, and fresh towels. For this task, a task analysis was developed for him. Using the task analysis as a self-monitoring tool, Christos was able to complete an average of 9 out of the 13 steps completely independently with only needing a total of 6 prompts across three bathrooms.

• Since the self-monitoring tool worked so well during the bathroom cleaning, he also utilized one on the last task to use a broom and dust pan to pick up the garbage and cigarette butts around the track. This task analysis only required 8 steps in which Christoscompleted 6 out of 8 steps independently, needing only 4 prompts total for this task.

• During this assessment, Christos completed tasks that he knew how to complete within his home and was able to transfer these skills to a new environment with minimal prompts. Using a task analyses as a self-monitoring tool was extremely helpful ad Christos even stated he liked having it to help. He stated he did not like some aspects of the job (cleaning the bathrooms) while he did enjoy others (being able to be outside). He stated even though he could receive less hours when the weather was not as nice, that this was a job he definitely enjoyed.

Final Recommendations

What supports need to be in place to address the participant’s desires for employment and needs?

Examples: Jon is very vocal about wanting a job and wanting money. Specific to

the job tryout doing landscaping. Jon needed many verbal reminders throughout the time on site to remain on task…

While Erin is motivated and would like to have a job and earn money, she has limited experiences our of her home environment…

>www.dpw.state.pa.us >www.dhs.pa.gov 41

Final Recommendations

Examples: Based upon this assessment, if Joe had 1:1 support as he learned

the tasks required of him, he would most likely excel in job situations that are highly preferred. Joe would need a great deal of reminders and guidance to learn new routines and tasks. Further, Joe would also need to be placed in a situation where time was not a factor and where there are minimal social pressures placed on him.
