Integrated Pediatric Interventions
Integrated Pediatric Interventions, a program of the Glick Center for Early Childhood Services, provides children, ages birth to nine, with comprehensive, individualized treatment and parents with the assurance that their child is getting outstanding care. Our team provides parents with a treatment plan to best address their child’s diagnosis and unique developmental needs. With a keen attention to detail, we carefully study the way children eat, utter their words and grasp at toys.
Our multi-disciplinary team understands the essential role that the family plays in the development of their child. That’s why many of our efforts focus on helping parents understand their child’s diagnosis and empowers them to teach their child at home.
“My son has been getting speech, occupational and group developmental therapy at JCFS for about a year now,” one parent states. “The therapists are very knowledgeable and able to adapt teaching methods to meet Jordan’s needs and help him reach his milestones. My son has excelled at JCFS and I feel lucky to have found such a devoted, loving group of therapists.”
