• Assistive Technology Department

     

    The Assistive Technology Department works cooperatively with the student’s treating OT and PT, parents, and vendors experienced with providing adapted equipment to children with special needs. Weekly clinics operate on site with outside vendors to service children with adaptive equipment needs. The professional staff assist parents in providing written justification to support the insurance approval process. The Orthotic Clinic evaluates students for lower extremity and foot correction through use of orthotics.
