Cerebral Palsy

Cerebral Palsy Multispecialty Team

The Cerebral Palsy Multispecialty Team is a program that includes several specialty services for children with a condition due to central nervous system damage. The major objective of the clinic is to improve the child's freedom of movement, posture and function. Patients are seen, on average, at time of diagnosis, at age 3, age 5, age 10, age 16, and age 20 by each of the services in this half-day clinic. According to individual needs, a child could be scheduled more or less often. Follow-up appointments in other multidisciplinary clinics or with specific providers are determined on an individual basis. Patients are referred to multispecialty teams after completing the Intake procedure.
