STAFF REQUIREMENTS
 

The manual requires CM to hold a Bachelor's Degree in a very small, and random number of specific degrees. This should be expanded to all human services degrees. 

I strongly believe existing staff should be grandfathered in. Experience within this field and the brain injury population should be considered in lieu of a degree. 

This wording makes much more sense: "staff must hold a bachelor’s degree in a relevant human services field or have X number of years of human services/brain injury field experience.
