Introduction:
Coordinating professionals for the initial assessment and treatment of children with learning difficulties is a complicated task.
Development:
Initial contact with the sources of information, the history and physical examination, a fast neuropsychological evaluation and requesting suitable tests allow the professional to reach an evaluation that will lead to a proposal for re-education. Evaluating the results of the re-education, coordination among the re-educators and the school, and explanations for the family are essential conditions for favourable progress to be made.
Conclusions:
In a visit for learning disorders, the role of the neuropaediatrician is crucial, especially to optimise the performance of the team as regards time and efficiency, and to improve the quality of the service offered to the child.
