Because there is a higher demand and not enough therapists. It depends on where u go for the therapies too. I’m at kkh rehab and we can get an appt every 3 weeks. Once I even got it at once every week. I think kkh rehab also provides eipic services. Maybe u can check. Kkh CDC and kkh rehab are different units, they don’t even share e same patient file. I think kkh CDC is by HPB coz the address on the appt card is different and they insist I use a different appt card while kkh rehab is under kkh. -

How long is the wait for your appts? -
yes, kkh is helping us via hbp but is only once per week and only barely 1 hr. where gto enough.. all the trouble travel there jus get 1hr session tat excluding warming up lor. i think KKH mus think of a way to really geniuely wan to help lor. tat my point.
but u see the website say at least 20hrs per week... where go get those $$ & time

Maybe you can check with your therapist what you can do at home with your child every day? Like tuition, the child also needs to study on his own. Just 1 hr a week won't be enough....yes, kkh is helping us via hbp but is only once per week and only barely 1 hr. where gto enough.. all the trouble travel there jus get 1hr session tat excluding warming up lor. i think KKH mus think of a way to really geniuely wan to help lor. tat my point. if touch & go what the point. mus well dun help.. is not effective or effecience and not even cost effective.. all $ will be gone and gain nothing through such system.

Actually once a week is pretty good unless u have mountains of money. This applies even in other countries. I think they are really trying to help already with a once a week appointment. And u must also remember that children’s attention span is very short. 1 hr is the norm. Usually they will give a list of things for u to practise at home. Yes, like what Lavina said, it’s like tuition. U still need to work on it at home. Like those learning piano or any musical instrument, u can’t expect them to know how to play just by simply attending the weekly session without practice. U gotta practise everyday at home. No point if u go to the centre and practise the same skill everyday. That’s wasting your money. It’s better to do it at your own home. In this world, we gotta help ourselves too. We cannot expect pp to spoon feed us. Therapy is not a school. So we shouldn’t be expecting them to be regular like a school. -

i always involve in the session for 1hr, i always see when my son start to get started the lesson is ending..
