𝙏𝙞𝙣𝙠𝙚𝙧 𝙏𝙤𝙩𝙨 𝙏𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙖𝙥𝙮 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙇𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙣𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝘾𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙚𝙧 – 𝙉𝙖𝙗𝙪𝙣𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙖𝙣 successfully conducted its first free consultation with Dr. Richard Balili and Dr. Icon Cortes. Children underwent developmental screening through parent interviews, age-appropriate standardized checklists, and direct observation, allowing for early identification of developmental concerns.
Early developmental screening is important because it helps identify concerns at the earliest possible stage, when a child’s brain is most responsive to intervention. Through early screening, children can receive timely support and appropriate referrals, helping improve overall developmental outcomes.
Following the consultation, 5 children were referred to a developmental pediatrician with assessments scheduled this coming March, while 7 children will begin early intervention to ensure timely and appropriate support for their developmental needs.
