Children’s Therapy Initiative
What is the Children’s Therapy Initiative (CTI)?
The Children’s Therapy Initiative makes it easier to get audiology, occupational therapy, physiotherapy and speech-language pathology in Southern Health-Santé Sud.
How does it work?
Trained health professionals work together as a team to provide support for children and youth with identified developmental concerns. To access services, parents, caregivers, doctors and other clinicians can send a referral to CTI. A parent’s legal or guardian consent is required as part of the referral process. CTI then reviews the referral and forwards it appropriately to ensure your child gets the right care by the right health care provider.
Your child’s therapy may be provided in a variety of settings, depending on the needs of your child and your family.
