| Description |
This session will discuss the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) environment where many children with complex or special health care needs start their lives, and explore the early intervention services these children may require. The session will describe some of the causes of the need for specialized care – including genetic and rare disorders, neonatal abstinence syndrome, and fetal alcohol spectrum disorder/fetal alcohol syndrome (FASD/FAS) – and discuss ways that SLPs can support these children and their families.
