What to Expect

Brain Puzzle image

Pre-visit 

Before coming in for your child’s first visit, you will be asked to complete some forms to provide our team with a comprehensive history of your child’s development. These forms provide your therapists with important information that will inform your child’s treatment plan. In addition, there are forms explaining our Financial & Office policies as well as the Privacy Practices that we maintain regarding your child’s personal health information. Upon completion, we request that these forms either be emailed or faxed to Spectrum Pediatric Therapy at least 2 days before to your child’s appointment, so that your therapist has time to review them prior to your child’s evaluation.



Your first visit

Your first visit will be approximately 1-1 ½ hours long and will include the following:

  • Observation of your child engaging in play activities including gross motor (crawling, walking, climbing, running), fine motor/table top (manipulation, drawing, grasping), socialization (do they play independently, will they play with      others), language, cognition.
  • Discussion with you regarding the primary concerns that have brought you to Spectrum.
  • Information regarding your child’s likes and dislikes, as well as any information that you can provide that would be helpful in treating your child.
  • Discussion of treatment goals.
  • Participation in or discussion of the possible need to participate in
        standardized developmental assessments.

Treatment

Following your initial visit, treatment sessions will last between 30-55 minutes depending on the type of therapy your child is participating in. At Spectrum, we believe in supporting the family as we address each individual child’s needs, we feel that parent education is an extremely important component of therapy sessions. Therefore, 1:1 direct therapy typically ends 5-10 minutes before the scheduled appointment end time to allow for parent education and a recap of what occurred during the session.


Families are expected to arrive on time for each session. Treatments will vary depending on your child’s needs and goals. As goals are met, your child’s treatment plan will be re-examined and if appropriate, discharge will be recommended. Our happiest day here is when your child has reached their goals and treatment is no longer necessary.
