How Do Healthcare Providers Assess Developmental Progress?
Healthcare providers use a combination of methods to assess developmental progress:
Developmental Screening: Brief assessments that identify children who may have developmental delays. Developmental Evaluation: A more in-depth assessment conducted by specialists to determine the nature and extent of developmental issues. Parental Observations: Parents provide valuable insights into their child’s development based on daily interactions and observations. Standardized Tests: These tests measure specific developmental domains and compare the child’s performance to normative data.
