#66: Early Intervention Timing and Intensity with Sarah Putt

The main finding of this important research from JAMA is extremely promising for early intervention OT professionals.In the study, greater early intervention service intensity was associated with better functional gains. But, there’s a problem. Federal spending per child on early intervention services has declined over the past decade. And, in this climate of tightening budgets: Most children in the study had delayed care. And, low service intensity. After we review this article, we are so thankful to welcome to the podcast pediatric private practice owner, Sarah Putt, OTR/L.
