Our knowledgeable and friendly staff are here to help you through the process. We've created the following step by step guide to help you in our thorough evaluation process. Our evaluation process is very unique in that we take extra time to evaluate your child comprehensively, conduct in-depth parent consultation, as well as educate and provide resources to your family to ensure your child's greatest success at Champion Pediatric Therapy!
step 1: determine a need / developmental red flags
If you haven't already, please read our helpful page on Developmental Red Flags. With early identification of your child's needs, along with advice and recommendations from your child's physician, you may determine your child has a need for therapy. If you are unsure, please request a complimentary consultation for your child. We are happy to help you!

step 6: schedule a patient recommendation conference & BEGIN THERAPY
Immediately following your Initial Evaluation, we will schedule a Patient Recommendation Conference (PRC). This is an essential component of our evaluation process. During this session, we will review your child's evaluation findings, plan of care, and provide parent education and resources on how we plan to work together to obtain your child's goals. Immediately following the PRC, you and your child are geared up to begin therapy. Your child will then begin their first session of treatment!
