The program offers periodic screening by a multidisciplinary team. When indicated, the program assists with or refers to appropriate intervention and financial services. The program provides psychosocial support as needed.
The NFP services are tailored to the needs of each child. A summary of each evaluation is sent to the child’s medical home and to the referring newborn intensive care unit. With parent approval, the summary is also sent to other providers involved in the child’s care.
Services offered: Developmental pediatrics, Child psychology (developmental testing), Speech/Language pathology, Nutrition (nutritional analysis), Audiology (hearing evaluation), Neurology (brain/nervous system evaluation--Provo location), Physical/Occupational therapy (motor skills evaluation).
