Multidisciplinary Approach
From the moment a child arrives, to the day he or she leaves, the child's care will be closely managed by a multidisciplinary team of experts who review each case to customize the care of each patient. Experts from various disciplines work together to improve communication and to facilitate evaluation, diagnosis and treatment.
