Guest guest Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 one of my son's therapist is with the school districts 0-3 program. We started seeing them in May and we saw her for 30 min a week. Now they are back from summer vacation and she told me that my son will have 30 min a week with her for a few weeks while she figures out how all of her students are doing then she is putting them in groups of 3 for a 1 hour session a week. I told her that group therapy is not recommended for Apraxia and that my son needs more therapy than once a week. She just said " sorry, that's all that we can do. " Is it only once the child is school age that I can request more therapy and call a meeting or can I do that for the early intervention 0-3 program also? The therapist didn't even mention any steps that I could take to get more therapy through the school district. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 If your child is in early intervention still---under age of three---ask for a list of ALL the providers (speech therapists) who are doing early intervention. Start calling the pediatric hospitals and regular hospitals in your area to see if they have a peidiatric speech therapist. Then see if they are providers. I went thru something similar and noone would tell me that there were therapists who were available--and have more time etc. Colleen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
