autism | drug therapy | family training | in-home therapy | occupational therapy | speech therapy | survey
Most families use between three and five different autism therapy services for their child.
This study was designed to see which therapies parents think help their children with autism. This study is different from most treatment studies, which focus on the effect of the treatment as measured by an observer. The study looked at nine types of common autism therapy services and found that parents liked in-home therapy and drug therapy best of all. Other therapy services included in the survey were: inpatient hospitalization, family training, individual therapy, speech therapy, occupational therapy, case management, and respite care. The survey included the parents of 113 children in Kentucky.
