DOWN SYNDROME REHABILITATION
Smart Medicine - July 2008 episode
Down syndrome is a chromosomal disorder that occurs in one of every 733 babies born. In the past, these children were given little hope of living a normal life. At the start of the 20th century, few were expected to live to the age of 10. Now, with recent advancements in clinical treatment and therapy, these children are not only surviving, they’re thriving! Rod Starns takes a look at how therapists at Baptist Rehabilitation-Germantown are helping to mainstream children with Down syndrome.
