Multi-Disciplinary and Multi-Option Evaluations and Screenings
We firmly believe that test results are only a part of the picture, but that interpretation thereof is the more important piece and our clinical observations assist in this process.
Evaluations / Screenings in Brief
We send out a comprehensive packet of questionnaires to assist us with developmental and current information from the home and school environment.- Our telephone intake interview process is thorough and assists us in making the best possible decision with regards to the actual assessments chosen.
- Our evaluations / screenings take place in a child- friendly and family-centered environment that sets the child / student at ease to obtain the best possible clinical and objective information.
- Our evaluations and / or screenings usually take place in the morning in order for us to obtain the most clinically objective data.
- We evaluate all children with special needs and developmental delays from the first year of life (birth) to 18 years old. We also do adult services, though these services are usually discussed individually and have no set format.
