If your child has come in close contact with someone that has tested positive for an infectious or highly transmissible disease please e-mail cancellations@i-can.center and consult your PCP regarding next steps. If your child has come in close contact with someone waiting for testing results, please follow the advice of your PCP. To ensure continuity of care, contact us for therapy options. ***We will evaluate your child when presenting with multiple symptoms to determine appropriateness for therapy.***
