The Centre provides high quality care i.e. consultations, diagnostics, treatment and rehabilitation for children from all over Ukraine. "Tandem" is an approach chosen by the Centre. It is approved by WHO and is based on combining medical and social aspects of rehabilitation. A child, who is developmentally delayed for various reasons, can be taught many things and helped to adapt within a society.
Rehabilitation treatment is provided by a team of health experts - an orthopedic specialist who is responsible for orthopedic correction, a Vojta therapist, a physiotherapist, a neuro-geneticist, a teacher, a speech therapist, a Montessori-therapist, a reflexo-therapist. A child is followed up by a neurologist and a psychologist. |
