Synopsis
Categorises the various types of cerebral palsy in order to provide a clear understanding of the different presentations of these children. Presents abilities and disabilities in the form of a comparison between normal development and the arrested development of a child with cerebral palsy. Emphasises careful observation, problem-solving skills and therapeutic aims. Treatment planning follows along the lines of working on specific pre-requisite skills necessary to facilitate more normal function. Deals with long-term handling and management on an interdisciplinary basis and stresses the training of parents. Treatment is tailored to suit each child’s individual needs.
