Encompass Parent Talks

You've got a diagnosis. Now what?

Episode Summary

For Episodes 3 & 4, the Parent Talks Podcast dives into the emotional and confusing issue of finding out your child has a life-long medical diagnosis like Autism, Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder or Generalized Anxiety Disorder. Some parents are expecting to hear a diagnosis for their child, some are surprised and some not ready to accept a diagnosis at all. In Episode 3, we talk with a group of parents about the varying responses their family members had to receiving a diagnosis. And, we get some helpful advice from Sally Rasmussen, a Special Educator of 28 years and an Early Intervention Specialist at Encompass.
