Homebound and Hospital Services
Location-Restricted Students
Homebound and/or hospital services offer a short-term instructional program for eligible students whose activities are restricted for at least 10 school days and who are confined to home or hospital due to a medically diagnosed physical or mental condition. The following procedures should be followed:
- Evaluation of the physical or health impairment by a licensed physician
- The physician should estimate the amount of time the child would require homebound services (must be at least two weeks) and must complete an authorized medical form, which may be obtained by contacting Student Services at (708) 761-5807
- An eligibility conference will be convened prior to service delivery
