Rehabilitative Services

Our clinicians use developmentally appropriate therapeutic equipment, games and toys to make therapy sessi​ons enjoyable and interesting for your child. We strongly believe in family-centered care and value input from parents regarding activities they think might be most beneficial for their child. We believe that parents are our partners in their child’s care and we willingly incorporate parent’s goals into treatment sessions. We involve the whole family in all phases of care by instructing and empowering parents to help their child realize their fullest potential.

The division shares knowledge and provides many continued educational opportunities to ensure staff competency.​ Additionally, we actively participate in research projects. 

 Current studies include:

• Benefits of the cochlear implant in both ears of young deaf children
• Effects on function of a spinal brace in children with spina bifida​ and a deformed spine
• Pediatric voice changes due to nasal obstruction
• The impact of implementing an infant-driven feeding program on oral feeding and growth outcomes of medically fragile infants in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit​

Our experienced clinical staff is committed to training the rehabilitation professionals of the future. We provide supervised clinical education ​experiences to students, externs, clinical fellows, residents and new graduates in all rehabilitative service areas.
