The first 1000 days of a child’s life are a crucial period of rapid brain development that sets the foundation for a lifetime of learning and growth. With 90 percent of their brain developed by age five, it is a time of immense possibility for growth. Thrive Pediatrics believes that guiding them through these early stages of development can lay a foundation for continued expansion of all developmental domains.
The team of experts—physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, and infant education specialists—focuses on participation focused care with its personalized and comprehensive approach. Thrive works with children of all abilities within the age range of birth to six years of age. It creates a play-based, natural environment for children in their clinic setting with opportunities for parents to practice hands on skills with the input of their therapist. The infant education program takes place in each child’s home with parents taking an active role in sessions to optimize outcomes.
“Our mission is to ensure our youngest citizens have the opportunity to lead a joyful life filled with meaningful relationships and connections with friends,” says Shannon Injety, owner of Thrive Pediatrics.
Each therapeutic discipline offered by Thrive Pediatrics is highly adaptable to each family’s needs. They keep the child and family at the forefront by utilizing the International Classification of Function, Disability and Health (ICF) model in their assessments and goal setting; focusing on participation as the key to a joyful life. All therapists address impairments using a variety of tools and ensure all that work gets put back into functional, variable practice.
If visiting the clinic, you may see kids with their physical therapist on the toddler sized treadmill, Galileo vibration plate or using a gait trainer to get to the stairs or swings. Thrive Pediatrics recognizes that speech is a crucial part of communication. Its speech therapists work together with parents and their children to develop communication strategies that lead to healthy interactions and a sense of autonomy. The children are prepared to make connections in meaningful ways through occupational therapy, where therapists facilitate healthy feeding, sensory integration, fine motor skills, and dressing.
The overwhelmingly positive reception from families regarding Thrive Pediatrics’ telehealth services is noteworthy. Children living in remote locations can now access regular weekly services. It provides learning packets with activity recommendations for families that can’t come to in-person services or have technical difficulties with telehealth. These relatively new methods of service help families in outlying areas access the services they need.
What sets Thrive Pediatrics apart is its staff and their commitment to its core values; Connection, Energy, Empathy, and Learn Every Day. Injety shares, “The real magic of Thrive is found in our incredible teammates and department leaders. From our office staff to direct service providers, we are focused on being of service”. Thrive Pediatrics wants every child to participate fully in their life and family role. Whether that means playing baseball with assistive devices, learning to adapt to different food textures to enjoy family meals or using sign language to communicate their desires.
For the past two decades, Thrive Pediatrics has worked tirelessly to help children achieve joyful lives connected with friends and meaningful relationships. A leader in its field, the organization has positioned itself to fulfill its mission by staying flexible and adapting to changes in state laws and funding while keeping the needs of children at the forefront. Thrive Pediatrics is where parents feel seen and heard, and children are given the tools they need to succeed.
