Question
I often feel that my child is slow in response and not as competent as peers, suspecting they may have intellectual disability. Which hospital should I choose for treatment?
Answer
Early intervention is crucial for treating intellectual disability, including individualized treatment and education during the pre-school period, combined with comprehensive assessment measures from medical, psychological, and educational perspectives. The goal is to fully tap into patients’ potential, enhance social skills and positivity, and help intellectually disabled patients recover sooner. It is recommended to go to a specialized hospital for detailed examination to determine the cause of the condition and start treatment early. Facing the challenge of intellectual disability, one should actively undergo examinations and treatment to avoid delays in seeking medical attention. If the treatment is not effective, the treatment plan should be adjusted promptly.
