3. Background and Significance of the Project
The Children and Adolescents Clinic is responsible for public knowledge and academic service. It is also responsible for providing developmental promotional services at an early time to children who have experienced problems from birth to adolescence. This early intervention allows for an opportunity to reduce the potential future challenges the children may have and lead them to grow into upstanding quality citizens.
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, Children and Adolescent Clinics had to adjust their operations to be consistent with the safety of the users and providers. Therefore, we organized an online service. Within this service, clients send clips of children who need to consult with the doctor and therapist. These clips are evaluated and then advice is given through a VIDEO Call. From this service, the clients can receive continuous treatment while reducing the risk of COVID-19 infections and reducing the time and distance restrictions.
4. Operations Process
- 1. The old patients can call or line to make an appointment for treatment by informing their names. On the other hand, if it’s a new patient, the staff will send documents to fill out the information via email and make an appointment again

3. Parents Classroom
Before we start running the Parents Classroom, Child and Adolescent Clinic has organized a forum on “Family Discussion” to discuss and exchange the information between family and staff about the information that the family needs the clinic to support. When we receive the information from this forum, we will start running the Parents Classroom. The parents can use this knowledge to take care of their children with developmental delays/special needs and take care of their mental health. After that, we will provide the knowledge to the public and make the course free.
