# How is a personalised therapy plan created for my child?

Publisher: Pinnacle Blooms Network / Bharath Healthcare Laboratories Private Limited

A personalised therapy plan begins with a clinician-administered structured assessment (the AbilityScore®) that maps your child's strengths and needs, after which your team and you set clear, achievable goals, choose the right mix of therapies, and review progress regularly. AbilityScore® is part of Pinnacle’s developmental assessment. Diagnosis, where needed, requires an appropriately qualified healthcare professional.

*Your child is not a template — so their therapy plan begins with truly seeing who they are, then building forward from their strengths.*

## In short
A personalised therapy plan is created after a clinician-administered structured assessment (the **AbilityScore®**) maps your child's strengths and needs across communication, movement, learning, behaviour and daily living. From that profile, your therapy team and you together set clear, small, achievable goals, choose the right mix of therapies, and agree how often you'll meet and review progress. The plan is a living document — it grows and changes as your child does.

## How the plan comes together
- **Understanding your child first** — a qualified clinician observes, listens and assesses across developmental areas, and listens closely to *your* concerns, hopes and everyday routines.
- **A clear profile of strengths and needs** — the AbilityScore® gives a structured picture, so support is shaped around how your child actually learns and plays, not a generic checklist.
- **Goals you help set** — together you choose a few meaningful, achievable targets (a first word, sitting steadily, calmer mealtimes) with realistic timelines.
- **The right mix of therapies** — speech, occupational, physiotherapy, behavioural or special education in the combination and intensity that fits your child.
- **Your role written in** — simple home routines so progress continues between sessions; you are your child's most powerful therapist.
- **Regular review** — the team re-checks progress and adjusts goals, so the plan keeps pace with your child.

## The Pinnacle way
AbilityScore® is part of Pinnacle’s developmental assessment. Diagnosis, where needed, requires an appropriately qualified healthcare professional — never from an app or form.
