PT 8240 - Family Centered Care in Early Childhood Systems

3 Credit Hours
Description
The purpose of this course is to illustrate the centrality of the family in the life of infants and young children (age birth to 3) with disabilities and, subsequently, early childhood intervention. Additionally, this course will facilitate interdisciplinary collaboration to understand roles and responsibilities of related health professionals in providing family centered early intervention. We will also explore the application of telerehabilitation in providing family centered care. This course relies on outside readings, discussions, and completion of performance-based competencies where concepts are interpreted and applied to early childhood intervention.
