Abstract :

The stimulation development program for a group of special needs child as a �??Therapeutic Day Care Program�?� is previously performed in a form of holistic group planning activity. However, there is a difference in each special child depending on the various levels of pathology in the body that can affect their development and ability in different areas. Based on these reasons, it encourages the researcher to realize the importance of developing individual treatment plan form which is called �??Therapeutic Day Care Development Scale (TDDS)�?�. The form will be used to initially assess the child development and will be used as a tool to stimulate the individual implementation plan (IIP). The purposive sampling of 41 special children whose age are between 2 - 10 years old is selected by all that attended the Therapeutic Day care Program. The result of this study revealed that TDDS has Cronbach�??s Alpha Coefficient at .984. The opinions from 6 specialists were made and can be concluded that the content validity is reliable and the interrater reliability rate is over 90%. The development for individual implementation plan is performed in which the result revealed that the percentage of special needs children can achieve target in four quarters in 2017 as 68.75, 80.56, 77.78 and 61.11 respectively. TDDS is an accurate and reliable form which can be used for developing plans, initially assess the child�??s development and design IIP according to the desired target.
