Sažetak
Re/habilitation of children with neurodevelopment risk represents a complex practical model which demands directed scientific approach. Existance of neurodevelopment risk, although no necessary connected with incidence of development disturbances, often deranges good interaction between parents and child and is particularly expressed in the first year of the child's life. Problem becomes more pronounced if neurodevelopment disturbance is diagnosed. Entering the family that has a child with expressed development disturbance in his/hers first year, a number of problems with which parents have to cope during that very important and valuable period are perceived. The most important is adaptation to the new situation. In the Republic of Croatia early intervention programs are directed primarily more to the child deficit and less to the parents, family and coordination between members of the expert team. This results with longer diagnose process accompanied with the uncertainty and exhaustion of parents. The implementation of project "Integration Development Programs for Early Intervention" started in 2005 in collaboration of Centre for Rehabilitation of the Faculty of Education and Rehabilitation of the University in Zagreb and Ministry of Family, Veterans' Affairs and Intergenerational Solidarity of the Republic of Croatia. Incentive for this project came from the needs of re/habilitation practice which is characterised with the insufficient representation and coordination of integration programmes in the early intervention procedures for children with neurodevelopment risk and insufficient education and support of the family in the earliest period of child development. Project is contribution to the Priority activities for the child welfare derived from the National programme acting for children in the Republic of Croatia and has the aim to develop protection measures for the children born with the risk factors. Programme will contribute to the preventive and therapeutic education-rehabilitation activity. In project participate rehabilitators-defectologist, speech pathologists, physicians of different specialist, psychologists, physiotherapists, contributing thus to the transdisciplinary characteristic of the research in the area of neurodevelopment re/habilitation. Furthermore, the results of the project will also contribute to the further development of included disciplines.
