As an in home ABA company, our hours of operations ends at Monday-Friday 7:30PM if students were to be providing in home. Families are always required to provide secured parking for all of our therapists. Therapists are supervised sometimes in person or virtual by their case supervisor. We can also ask families to be on the lookout when therapist leave to ensure adequate safety measures.

Even though all employees go through our office, since we provide ABA services in patient's homes, sometimes our supervisors will not be able to be in person with students working. Students will be directed virtually and supervised via telehealth during their ABA sessions, we provide all equipment necessary for all our employees.
