Why Complete Developmental Screening?
Developmental screening is a routine monitoring process used to identify any potential developmental delays in children. Early detection is a valuable tool in terms of treating health and development issues. Developmental screenings can identify delays in milestones that can indicate diagnoses of autism, intellectual disability, and attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder, among others.
Screenings are performed through questions and questionnaires during a well-child checkup to ensure that your child is progressing at a normal rate. This takes only a few minutes at each doctor’s visit, but can play a major role in identifying and then treating early developmental conditions.
