Randall Pediatric Development & Rehabilitation
Home > MESD Schools & Programs > Hospital School Program > Randall Pediatric Development & Rehabilitation
The school program at Randall Children’s Hospital’s Pediatric Development and Rehabilitation Department is part of a larger interdisciplinary team that serves children who require intensive, inpatient rehabilitation. The rehab team consists of Physicians, Physical therapists, Occupational Therapists, Art Therapists, a Neuropsychologist, a Child Life Therapist, a Social Worker and a Nurse Case Manager. Some common diagnoses of patients coming through the rehab program include traumatic brain injury, anoxic brain injury, brain tumor, spinal cord injury and reflex neurovascular dystrophy.
The rehab teacher works with each patient individually for a scheduled 30-60 minute session, 5 days/week. School time is devoted to either working on homework from the student’s home school or working on more general “school skills” depending on the student’s level of functioning. The rehab teacher spends additional time working with families and schools to prepare for the student’s transition back to school by updating schools on the student’s progress throughout their stay, educating families on the Special Education process and recommending physical and cognitive modifications to the child’s home school program.
