Coordinator: Traci Bates, RN
Children who have cerebral palsy or other neurodevelopmental problems receive continuity of care in this clinic. They receive comprehensive evaluation, long–term treatment, follow–along care and reevaluation by the core interdisciplinary staff along with orthopedists and other medical specialists. Strong relationships with the families of clients and linkages with other community service agencies are in place. Since the majority of clients have multiple handicaps, their needs are complex and require a high degree of coordination between groups to insure that services meet commonly recognized and agreed-upon goals.
