Developmental Screenings

Developmental Screenings are offered at Revere Health to identify early signs of neurodevelopmental disorders in children, including autism and ADHD. Early intervention is crucial, as it significantly improves developmental outcomes.

Importance of Developmental Screening
These screenings assess a child’s progress in key areas like play, learning, and communication. Regular monitoring allows parents and healthcare providers to track growth and address concerns early. Well-child visits typically include developmental monitoring, with structured tests or questionnaires used if issues arise.

The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends routine screenings at 9, 18, and 30 months, plus additional autism screenings at 18 and 24 months. These evaluations help identify children at risk for delays, facilitating early referrals for further assessment.

Early Intervention Services
If developmental delays are detected, early intervention services can support children from birth to age three in acquiring essential skills. For older children, special education services can be arranged.

Conclusion
Revere Health’s Developmental Screenings Service is dedicated to helping children receive early evaluations and interventions. If you have concerns about your child’s development, contact us to schedule a screening and ensure their well-being.
