Physical and Occupational Therapy Services
California Children's Services (CCS)
As
pediatric therapists, it is our goal to assist your child in
becoming as functionally independent as possible and to improve
the quality of life for the children and families served in the
medical therapy program.
Medically necessary physical and
occupational therapy services are provided to
children with physical disabilities at Medical Therapy Units
(MTU) located on public school campuses. MTU therapy services
are provided free to children who meet CCS medical eligibility
criteria for MTU services. CCS eligibility criteria are based on
diagnosis and include conditions, such as Cerebral Palsy, Spina
Bifida, Muscular Dystrophy and Juvenile Rheumatoid Arthritis.
Therapy
Evaluations
Children are evaluated by physical and occupational
therapists upon entering the CCS therapy program. The physical
therapist evaluates gross motor development, strength, range of
motion, muscle tone, reflexes, and mobility skills. The
occupational therapist evaluates fine motor ability, perceptual
and self-care abilities. Therapy goals are established in
collaboration with parents or caregivers.
Therapy
Frequency
Medically necessary therapy frequency is based on the
child's rehabilitation potential which is determined by
the physician, in conjunction with results of the physical and
occupational therapist's evaluation and recommendations.
Home
Programs
A written home program is developed to incorporate into the
child's daily routine. A home program may consist of:
Consultation
Therapists are available for consultation
visits:
-
To the child's home to assist
in planning for equipment the child might need, or for
modifications to the home to allow the child to function at
his or her maximum potential
-
To the child's school to
collaborate with teachers or other educational personnel who
are involved in the child's education
-
To doctor appointments, special
clinic visits or other community agencies
CCS
Medical Conference vs. Private Physician Coverage
The therapy program requires a signed prescription to provide
physical and occupational therapy services. The prescription can
be obtained through the CCS Medical Conference at the MTU or a
private physician.
