Description
Perlman provides a holistic, multidisciplinary model of day therapeutic treatments for the very young child with a chronic physical condition, disability or severe health impairment. The therapeutic programs are recognized for their progressive model of providing occupational, physical and speech therapies in an integrated, functional setting. Direct therapy is provided in an intensive, yet child-friendly, format which takes maximum advantage of cross-disciplinary treatments, peer support, family involvement and extended service coordination.
Tailored specifically for the child with physical challenges, the programs continually strive to provide cutting-edge equipment and technology support as well as the highest level of therapeutic expertise. Integral involvement with the community and awareness of its many resources makes the Perlman Center a one-of-a-kind resource for families who are in need of support, information and direction, whether it be medical, financial or social.
