1st Step (Child under 3yrs old) is to contact your local DHEC for us in Columbia, SC it's called "BABY NET"... Bright Start ( our Favorite) # 803-929-1112
This service gets someone to your home to evaluate your child to see what kind of services he/ she needs.
This will get you started on Early Intervention, speech, Occupational, ABA & Physical therapies...
Your Early Interventionist will help you apply for state funds... programs/ Medicaid/ tefra etc;
( IF YOU NEED MORE INFO>>> LET ME KNOW) This process will take a while.. SAVE your receipts of any medical expenses.. some of it may get reimbursed!
You'll need to get your pediatrician/ doctor to get in touch w/ a physiologist to get a diagnosis ... * IF THE WAITING LIST TO GET YOU SEEN IS LONGER THAN 2 months.. DON'T WAIT!!!
TIME IS CRUCIAL !!! GO TO A PRIVATE PHYSIOLOGIST!!! IT'S THE BEST MONEY SPENT!!!
