Active treatment is monitored by which professional?

Active treatment refers to the ongoing, developmentally appropriate interventions designed to help a person with an intellectual or developmental disability gain, maintain, or improve skills and prevent regression. In most IDD systems, this work is overseen by the Qualified Intellectual Disabilities Professional, who is trained to assess needs, design and supervise the active treatment plan, monitor progress, and adjust interventions as needed within the Individual Support Plan. The physician handles medical care, not the day-to-day habilitation monitoring, and while family members or community counselors can participate in planning and support, they don’t have the professional mandate to monitor active treatment.
