Child Development Disorders (Child Development Clinic)

What is child development?

Simply speaking, it is how children grow and mature physically, mentally, and emotionally.

The purpose of the Child Development Clinic is to assess whether children are functioning at an age-appropriate level of maturity and, if abnormalities are found, to provide the most appropriate therapeutic interventions to help them reach their full potential as individuals.

01

Developmental Assessment Tests

Assessment of development is an important part of a pediatrician's job to help children with abnormal development as early as possible. Assessment of child development includes medical history, physical examination, hearing and vision screening, neurological examination, and developmental screening. If a screening suggests a problem, a multidisciplinary team of professionals should work together to diagnose and treat the child.

Developmental Assessment Areas

Gross motor
Cognition
Personal / social
Fine motor
Speech / language
Acquisition of skills needed for daily living

Developmental Assessment
Age Specific Purposes
