Children’s Disability Network Teams
The Children’s Disability Network Team (CDNT) provides specialist support and services for children who have a disability and complex health needs associated with their disability. Children who have mild or moderate difficulties may be referred to one or more health professionals in their local primary care services.
Children who have a range of significant difficulties may be referred to a CDNT. This is a team of professionals with expertise in disability who work closely together.
A CDNT supports a child’s development, wellbeing and participation in family and community life. The team members share their knowledge, information and skills with you and your family so you can support your child’s development.
Team members can meet children and families in their home, in school or in our office. CDNT’s comprise Occupational Therapists; Psychologists; Physiotherapists; Social Workers; Speech and Language therapists; Dietitians.
Sensitivity to cultural differences is entwined in the systems of service delivery which are compatible with family values and goals. Each family’s unique cultural differences and diversity are recognised. The uniqueness will inform the partnership in service delivery with the family.
