Physiotherapists and Occupational Therapists work holistically with a focus on mastering daily life, both at home, in daycare, school, and during leisure time.
Parents/guardians can make direct contact, or the child may be referred by a school nurse, doctor, daycare, school, or other institutions with the consent of parents/guardians.
A referral from a doctor is not required.
Once we receive an inquiry, the case will be prioritized according to current prioritizations. The treating physiotherapist and/or occupational therapist will make direct contact with the referrer and/or the parents.
Concent
Children under 16 years old: It is required that the parents/guardians are informed and consent to the contact.
Adolescent and youth aged 16-20: They can fill out the inquiry form themselves without informing or obtaining consent from their parents/guardians.
