Consider Maslow\u2019s hierarchy of needs.<\/p>\n Is there fear of the unfamiliar or of having to admit that help is needed?<\/p>\n What is the cost to the client other than money-time, loss of work, and so forth?<\/p>\n Accessibility<\/strong><\/p>\n Consider things in the client\u2019s situation that may limit access to the referral agency or hinder the client\u2019s ability to follow through on the referral.<\/p>\n Examples<\/i><\/i><\/p>\n Transportation, language barriers, hours of operation, and conflicts with client\u2019s work or school schedule.<\/p>\n Availability<\/strong><\/p>\n Is there a referral source that meets the client\u2019s need?<\/p>\n This goes back to community assessment and being aware of the resources that are available in the community.
