Interventions may include compensatory measures, training, and adaptations in daily life.

We work in two teams: a children's team and an adult team. The teams consist of several different professions working in close collaboration. Our target group is children and adults with permanent mobility impairments and intellectual disabilities. We work together based on the individual's needs to promote independence and quality of life.
