💙 Assent & Compassionate-Based Care 💙 

At Caravel, we don’t just teach skills. 
We build therapy on a foundation of assent and compassionate care, shaped around what’s comfortable, meaningful, and empowering for your child. 

🧠 What Is Assent-Based, Compassionate Care? 
Assent-based care means your child’s preferences and comfort guide every session. 
We focus on: 
 🗣️ Prioritizing active engagement – checking in before transitions or new activities 
 ✋ Honoring autonomy – supporting choices, breaks, and personal agency 
 🎨 Child-friendly support – using visuals, sensory tools, and preferred routines to promote participation 

Where used, 93% of sessions achieve a score of 4 or higher on our 5-point engagement scale. The engagement scale is a measure of how positively and meaningfully a child participates in therapy. A score of 4 reflects active engagement and happiness two specific measures that we track each session. 

By monitoring this data, we ensure sessions are built around: 
✔️ Comfort 
✔️ Choice 
✔️ Active engagement 

💡 Why This Matters to Your Family 
Children who feel safe, respected, and heard are more likely to learn and love therapy. 
Compassionate care reduces stress, deepens trust, and supports lasting progress. 

At Caravel, we don’t just monitor outcomes. 
We build relationships. 

Because compassion isn’t just a value. 
It’s an evidence-based strategy for meaningful change. 💙

🌟 Clinical Quality Scores (CQS) 🌟 

You’ve heard us talk about Clinical Quality Scores (CQS)... but what do they really mean for your child’s therapy? 

They mean progress with purpose. 
They mean care that’s reviewed, refined, and focused on results every step of the way. 

💡 What Are Clinical Quality Scores? 
Created by our Clinical Center of Excellence, CQS track: 
• 📈 Progress in communication, behavior, and adaptive goals 
• 🤝 Frequency and quality of caregiver collaboration 
• ✅ Reliable care and accurate progress tracking from the therapy team 
• 👩‍⚕️ Clinical judgment and supervision effectiveness 

Caravel’s overall company-wide Clinical Quality Score is 96 out of 100. 
That tells us the approach is working exceptionally well and where to focus our resources next. 

💙 Why It Matters to You 
Your child’s therapy is always being tracked and fine-tuned. 
We continuously measure what matters because you deserve care that’s: 
✨ Accountable 
✨ Personalized 
✨ Always improving 

At Caravel, we believe clinical excellence isn’t a finish line. 
It’s the foundation of every session.

🔍 Clinical Supervision & Family Progress 

Behind every therapist at Caravel is a full team of experts. These experts are guiding care, refining goals, and ensuring every session is intentional. 

Because real progress doesn’t just happen. It’s designed, supervised, and supported. 

📊 77% of our clients receive more than the recommended 10% supervision of their weekly treatment hours from senior clinicians. 

That means session data was reviewed, treatment plans were optimized, and goals were fine-tuned regularly. 

🗓️ Weekly check-ins 
📚 Monthly training on topics like assent-based care and autonomy 
📈 PathTap™ dashboards that surface trends and help us pivot quickly 

Our supervision isn’t just oversight, it’s insight. 
And your child’s care stays as dynamic as their development. 

Because when therapists are supported, families see the difference. 
Supervised care = quality care. And your child deserves nothing less.

🧠 Caregiver Collaboration 

At Caravel, we don’t just deliver therapy. We teach families how to carry progress into real life using the science of Applied Behavior Analysis. 

Your involvement matters. The moments that shape development like bedtime routines, grocery store transitions, or sharing with siblings- happen at home. That’s why caregiver collaboration is central to our care. 

📊 Caravel’s families average 1.9 hours of caregiver collaboration per month. We know how impactful this time can be and are always actively trying to increase it. 

📈 Research shows that families who engage in caregiver training are 3.3 times more likely to see meaningful behavior change, based on standardized parent assessments. 

Caregiver coaching turns therapy into a team effort. 

You bring the insight. We bring the expertise. 
And together, we help your child thrive everywhere life happens.
