The Center for Excellence for people with Autism Spectrum Disorder, located in the facilities of the KK Nagar Rehabilitation Medicine Institute, has six months, but has tasks that advance in its tender age.
Inaugurated by the state government to guide the parents and guardians of children with autistic spectrum disorder, as well as to sacrifice a variety of services, the center is working to become a “place of going” for Tea.
“We had an average of 70 people who attended these sessions, with web seminars in occupational therapy that obtain maximum assistance,” says Rema Chandramohan, withdrawal director, Children’s Health Institute, Madras Medical College, which supervises the operation of the center.
The culminating point of the 40 -minute web seminars are the parents’ question and answers sessions.
“It is possible that everyone does not have access to occupational speech or therapist, but one can make use of the environment at home to sacrifice therapy, for which we sacrifice the orientation. We also provide infidating information about the centers in the state where one can take advantage of the therapy,” Rema, Professor of Pediatrics.
Early intervention is the first help one can sacrifice a child with ASD for which the center is creating awareness.
“Currently, the center receives five new people a day and 18-20 patients come to therapy,” says Dr. Rema.
The center has a physiotherapist, speech therapist, occupational therapist and special educator.
“Those in the spectrum must be constantly monitored and the objectives established for their development,” he says that he assumes a help line that your child can get a toll that can be communicated with any wing question not spent in ASD.
Future plans
The Center for Excellence wants to be the “option” center for ASD. It is to start research work and also move on to a larger space. “We want to begin accreditation to other therapy centers, which will be based on space, the security aspects often and the qualification of people working in the unit,” says Dr. Rema.
A process has also been discussed to create a state -level record for ASD.
