Programs and Services

Physical Therapy

Physical Therapy Services promote gross motor skills such as sitting, creeping and walking through play-based activities. Parental support and education empowers parents to use therapy techniques within the child’s home and community.

Physical Therapists can be a resource for adaptive equipment and orthotics to facilitate positioning and mobility. Our Equipment and Resource Lending Library often allows the child and family to evaluate equipment on a trial basis before purchasing or to use when the need will be short term.

Therapy is provided in the home, daycare, preschool or in our facility. With UCP’s team of Occupational Therapists, Speech Therapists and Special Education Teachers, we are able to provide a holistic approach. UCP has a variety of child friendly equipment and settings allowing therapy to be play with a purpose.

For more information about these services, contact Heather Weddle at 816-364-3836.
