Hey Ron,
Unfortunately this is an outpatient setting, so multidisciplinary means OT,
ST and PT. The other problem for this young fellow is poor carryover by his
family and caregivers. He also gets a lot of encouragement from peers as they
feel his behavior is funny. It does prevent any meaningful level of
interaction though.

Hello Jimmy:
I don't have any significant experience with your setting. However,
having worked with several patients with similar behavior I think the
best approach you can offer is a multi-disciplinary approach to
behavior management. Setting up a (+) reinforcement system that is
both fair and consistently applied MAY go a long way in helping this
man re-establish some self-control.
Keep us informed.
Ron
