Pediatric Rehabilitation Therapy

Overview

Pediatric rehabilitation at Greenwich Hospital offers personalized and compassionate care. We customize each child's treatment plan to their unique needs, goals and developmental stage, ensuring that they receive the most effective and enjoyable therapy experience. We offer physical therapy (PT). occupational therapy (OT) and speech and language pathology (SLP) as well as the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Great Results After Discharge Program.

Therapy sessions are designed to be engaging and fun by using play-based therapy techniques. We offer private pediatric-specific rooms with 1:1 care. Our pediatric therapists are dedicated to helping your child reach their full potential.

At our clinic, we believe in family-centered care by involving parents and caregivers in the therapy process. For caregivers, we offer resources such as tips for promoting gross motor skills at home, information about developmental milestones, home exercise programs, collaboration with other healthcare professionals and links to relevant organizations or support groups.

If you have any questions concerning a specific diagnosis or symptom, please inquire when booking your evaluation.

NICU GRAD Program

The Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) Great Results After Discharge (GRAD) Program is for infants who have been discharged from one of our Yale New Haven Health NICU. The mission of the NICU GRAD Program is to provide family-centered, post-discharge medical and developmental care to support high-risk infants and young children during and after their transition from the hospital to home. Children in the NICU GRAD Program will be evaluated by a neonatologist, nutritionist and physical or occupational therapist. The therapist will perform an assessment to evaluate if the child is meeting their expected milestones. Your rehabilitation team will ensure the proper referrals are in place, so your child can receive required interventions from the appropriate PT, OT and/or SLP. When the infant turns 1-year-old, they are seen at Yale New Haven Hospital’s NICU GRAD Program for a detailed developmental assessment.
