Physical Therapy Programs
The Physical Therapy Department at Gateway School is dedicated to addressing performance skills where a child’s disability impacts or compromises their ability to physically access, participate or make progress in their natural learning environment.
Our Physical Therapy program goals and highlights:
- Functional mobility skills addressed, as they relate to the school environment
- Training in gross motor coordination skills
- Balance and strength training included with development of follow-up in-class programs
- Orthopedic concerns are an area of focus
- Consultation and collaboration with students’ medical doctors as needed
- Home exercise programs as well as parent training
