My 11-month-old had her first meeting with her paediatric multi-disciplinary team at Wester Hailes Healthy Living centre in Edinburgh today, led by Dr Orr. There were 5 medical staff devoted to my baby for a whole hour, and it was a great experience. They listened well to me, and watched the baby carefully as they played with her. I felt heard, my concerns were validated, and I agreed with their observations/assessment of my child's development. I also felt they were on board with what support she needed, and that we were now "plugged in" to the right avenues of support. Before this meeting I felt uncertain about where to get help or what was available. Now I feel confident that she will get the care and support she needs to reach her potential.
