Promoting Development in Children Under 3 Years
The most current research can be a game-changer for therapists, teachers, and family resources personnel working with children suffering from mild to severe disabilities in the 0-3 age range. This course will provide updated information on normal development, and how to spot even the most difficult to pinpoint signs of delay. An in-depth description of the development of the sensory systems, (vision, touch, smell, taste, auditory, proprioception, and vestibular), will be given to maximize the assessment of a child’s motor, coping, and self-regulation strategies. Specific evidence-based treatment techniques for clinicians with patients who have complications related to prematurity, developmental delay, and cerebral palsy will be addressed. Videos, hands-on activities, and a case study will further evince the research and information shared in this critical recording.
