In a care team, what is the role of CT?

Focusing on the care team dynamic, the CT’s role is to serve as a liaison that connects the different professionals involved and keeps their efforts aligned. This means gathering assessment findings, recommendations, and goals from specialists (like the O&M clinician, TVI, therapists) and ensuring everyone on the team understands them in the same way. By bridging communication, the CT helps coordinate when and how each intervention is carried out, so mobility instruction, classroom adaptations, and therapy work support a cohesive plan for the student. It’s more than just sharing information or performing a specific service; it’s about actively linking the team’s expertise and translating it into coordinated actions across settings. That coordinating, integrative function is why bridging between specialists is the best fit.
