EARLY INTERVENTION & DEVELOPMENTAL SURVEILLANCE CLINIC
This clinic offers services to children aged 0- 5 years. The newborn infants at risk of developmental delay, and infants and toddlers with features of early developmental concerns are commonly seen.
SERVICES
All children undergo rigorous paediatric clinical assessment and developmental assessment. Bayley Infant and Toddler assessments are carried out on at risk infants to monitor developmental attainments and to detect any deviations on a regular basis. Early intervention is offered through the other clinics conducted in our department specially the multi-disciplinary clinic and the speech and language therapy clinics. The children are also referred to clinical geneticist services and audiology services for further assessments and interventions. This clinic also closely collaborates with preschools and other community based services to ensure best care for the infants and toddlers attending the clinic. Infant surveillance services are also extended to the North Colombo Teaching Hospital at the at risk infant clinic attached to the Professorial Paediatric clinic as a joint collaboration with the Department of Paediatrics of our University.
