Toilet Training Clinic
We at Reinforcement Unlimited, LLC
are very excited to offer a Toilet Training Clinic. Toilet
Training can be a challenge for parents of typical children. A variety
of factors can contribute to delayed or dysfunctional toileting in a
child. Many day care facilities and schools will not serve a child who
is 3 years old or older if they are not toilet trained.
There
are a variety of materials available on toilet training. It seems that
everyone has their own opinions, sometime firm opinions, as to what you
should do to resolve the issue of your child not being potty trained.
Our goal is to achieve successful potty usage by your child
consistently. We focus on positive interventions in order to make the
entire process as pleasant for everyone as possible. We review
the medical, developmental and behavioral causes for delayed toilet
training. In cases where there is the possibility of medical factors
contributing to the toileting issue we make appropriate referrals. We
strive to be informative for both parents and professionals who work with
children with toileting issues. Successful intervention strategies, with
research support, are our focus.
Who are we:
Dr. Robert Montgomery has been consulting on toilet training issues with
children for nearly twenty years. Our consultants have training and
experience with consultation on various behavioral issues and in parent
training. We work together with parents to formulate a workable plan
that is based on the child and what the research literature indicates is most
likely to benefit the child and their family.
The Process:
We provide clinic and in-home consultation your
child's toileting issues.
-
The process begins with a
careful review of your child's records to determine if there is a need to
refer you for additional medical evaluations. A central goal of our
consultation services is to determine if additional medical assessments
need to be completed in order to ensure the health and safety of your
child.
-
A detailed interview is
conducted that focuses on both day-time and night-time routines and
behavior.
-
Parents are often asked to
give us detailed information on the process of their child's behavior
around toileting.
-
We can proceed by asking
parents to record information about toilet behavior for 3-15 days in order
for a detailed analysis of patterns and routine.
-
Our staff are available to
visit you and your child at home, at the day care facility, and at school
in order to gain as complete and understanding of the process for your
child as possible.
Once sufficient information is
collected, and possible medical issues are resolved or addressed, the team
will meet with the parents in order to present a detailed plan for toilet
training your child. Parent education and instruction in various
techniques may be a part of the plan developed jointly by the parents and the Reinforcement Unlimited, LLC staff.
