Rehabilitation and Therapy at The Children’s Hospital
The primary goal of The Children’s Hospital Rehabilitation program is to optimize each child’s abilities to adapt to the environment, to ease the effects of disability on the child’s development, and to allow the child to be fully included in community living. A child's success in the program results from the collaboration of the family with our highly trained team of pediatric specialists. At The Children’s Hospital, the Rehabilitation staff, the child’s family and the child’s primary care physician comprise each child's rehabilitation team.
