Medical Challenges in Young Children and the Impact on Development

As service coordinators and providers in early intervention we will have the opportunity to learn about many different children. Understanding the medical needs of each child and the impact it can have on their development is a primary reason for Early Intervention services. Some children are automatically eligible based on their medical diagnosis and others may not be. This seminar will be an opportunity for Dr. Ochoa to guide a conversation around the needs of children who have medical challenges and understand both early and later life outcomes.
