When a child arrives at RNBC, we follow these steps:

 1.     We assess the child’s strengths and weaknesses. This thorough assessment process may include psychological testing, interviews, neurological or psychiatric evaluations, speech and language testing and other assessment methods.

 2.     We share the results of our evaluation with the parents and, when appropriate, schools or referring professionals.

 3.     We offer recommendations for treatment and management of the problem based on an understanding of the child, family, school, and peer relationships that exist.

 4.     We provide case management utilizing the many services available within our multi-disciplinary clinical environment. We coordinate the necessary services to optimize the child’s development.

 Starting Early Is Important

 Parents who suspect their child may be showing signs of one of the neurobehavioral issues we address may hope or assume their child’s behavior is a phase that will pass. And indeed, not every small child who can talk for 45 minutes about a single subject has Asperger’s Syndrome, and not every extremely active child has ADHD.

 However, when a constellation of symptoms appears that indicates a child may have a brain-based learning or behavior problem, it is best to begin intervention as soon as possible. Great improvements can result when a child is young and the brain is most able to adjust.
