Guest guest Posted December 29, 2004 Report Share Posted December 29, 2004 We are starting a pediatric pool program in our warm water pool in the next couple of months and I was wondering if there was a standard out there that facilities were using if kids have a history of seizures. We see adults in the pool and our rule is if they have a history of seizures they must be seizure free for 2 months prior to having therapy in the pool. Are people using the same guidelines for kids? Or are there different industry standards out there? Thanks for any help or any references! Renn, PT Clinic Manager Madonna Therapy Plus mrenn@...
