Ensures that all behavior analytic programming conducted under their supervision by WellSpan Philhaven staff is provided in a safe and ethical manner and that the BA and WellSpan Philhaven staff will train, provide feedback, and/or report to designated authorities if the family or other non-WellSpan Philhaven professionals engage in unsafe or unethical behavioral programming. Engages in functional assessment of problematic behaviors as well as assessments of skill deficits, motivating, and other environmental variables in order to increase use of safe and socially acceptable behaviors and decrease problematic behaviors. Establishes & maintains therapeutic relationship by pairing self as a reinforcing entity and building the value for the patient of social interaction with the BA. Accurately collects and analyzes behavior data to make decisions about treatment interventions.

Oversees and provides training and monitors fidelity of behavioral interventions for family members and other professional staff caring for the patient.

Directly designs and supervises behavior analytic plans and interventions for skill development and/or reduction of problematic behavior in which other WellSpan Philhaven staff have not received sufficient training and exposure to previously. Collaborates with family and treatment team members to provide treatment effectively and without disruption to the environment or other individuals in the environment. Educates all those involved about the role of ABA based interventions and the BA, and functions within boundaries of the BC role in providing treatment.
