Kirch Developmental Services Center
Diagnostic Evaluations
Diagnostic Evaluations for children suspected of having a developmental disability are provided in order to identify the possible causes of developmental delays and assist families in understanding their child’s behavior and development.
Evaluations may be provided by a developmental pediatrician, clinical psychologist, or pediatric nurse practitioner. Recommendations may help the family, primary care provider, and educational system in implementing interventions.
Specialty Health Care and Consultation
Specialty Health Care and Consultation is offered for children with complex developmental disabilities.
Developmental pediatricians, pediatric nurse practitioners, and pediatric social workers provide ongoing care that addresses health and behavioral issues related to a child's developmental disability.
Physical Disabilities Program
Physical Disabilities Program provides multidisciplinary specialty health care provided to children with complex physical disabilities such as Cerebral Palsy and Spina Bifida. The team provides evaluation and monitoring of health and behavioral issues that may be associated with a child's disability. Recommendations for your child are made with the goal of optimizing health, independence, community participation, and quality of life.
Prenatal Consultations
Prenatal consultations are for families who have received a diagnosis of developmental difference prior to the birth of a child.
