Presentation of the Manual

22.01.2016.

Mali dom - Zagreb in October 2015 published a manual "Enhanced Handling and Positioning of the Child through Motion and Movement." The manual was written by our employee Jasminka Gagula, physiotherapist and children's Bobath therapist (NDT certificate), with extensive experience in working with children with disabilities.

The manual was written in order to present the procedures of proper handling through motion and movement with children of early age with developmental risks or with children who have already developed a classification of cerebral palsy.
The manual is intended for experts in the field of Early Intervention including different profiles of expertise - physical therapists, special education teachers, occupational therapists, psychologists and other specialists who usually work in the field of pediatrics, and as such is unique and extremely useful.

On Thursday, January 21st 2016, we organized a presentation of the manual that was attended by representatives from various cooperating institutions who received a copy of the manual.

The presentation was also attended by the head of the City Office for Social Welfare and Persons with Disabilities, M.Sc. Visnja Fortuna. Darko Milaščević, dipl.physioth. from University of Applied Health Sciences Zagreb gave a brief overview of the manual, and then the author herself Jasminka Gagula held a presentation of the work.
