Paediatric Neurology

We assess the need for interprofessional rehabilitation on children with cerebral palsy, based on scientific evidence. We develop the rehabilitation of children with cerebral palsy in a national project, for which we have received the Finnish Medical Association's quality award in 2011.

We perform diagnostic assessment and assessment of the need for interprofessional rehabilitation in difficult children's communicative and contact problems. We are especially competent in the early diagnostics of autism. Each child is appointed a personal nurse and a rehabilitation instructor in our unit to support and contact the family. The feedback we have received from families has been very positive.

We are active in both national and international professional muscular disease diagnostics and treatment networks. This enables us to treat muscular diseases based on the most recent information.
