Complexity in managing young children with special needs requires multidisciplinary approaches, along with family-focused interventions and support. Coordination of these interventions across multiple settings adds an even greater challenge for health care providers, special educators, pre-school teachers, therapists, speech pathologists and parents. As professionals working with young children with developmental disabilities, we are charged with enhancing our knowledge of medical and behavioral conditions, refining our assessment skills and expanding our tools and strategies for managing these special needs children.

I am a frequent attendee of this conference and always leave with cutting edge information that I can use in my own practice and can share with colleagues. Cynthia A. DeFrancisco, MS, CCC/SLP Fort Mohave, Arizona
Medically Complex Special Needs Children
Advances in neonatal care have improved survival rates of premature infants, and infants with chronic lung disease, birth defects, and genetic disorders. More infants with spina bifida now survive to adulthood. The almost unavoidable consequence is that some infants who would not have survived in the past now live with significant physical and neurologic disorders. How do you best manage medically complex special needs children? What interventions should be implemented first to maximize learning, promote better health, and increase their chances of living independently?
