The Korea Rehabilitation Centre for Children with Disabilities (KRCCD) is making efforts to help children with disabilities get access to school education.
The centre provides a comprehensive and multi-functional rehabilitation service for children with autism, cerebral palsy, hearing impairment, Down’s syndrome and other disorders.
Song Hyang Chun, directress of the centre, said that children who were under the protection of their parents due to congenital disorders are recovering their health step by step under the care of nursing teachers and doctors and receiving normal education at kindergartens and schools.
Medical workers of the centre are making correct diagnoses according to the types of disabilities and applying positive and persistent therapies. Its nursing teachers are developing the intelligence of children by means of intelligence-promoting toys and steadily improving their teaching methods and contents to help them easily understand the teaching contents.
Meanwhile, children play such interesting games as colour matching and picture puzzles in the centre with home-like-environment. They also try to get familiar with various movements, wearing clothes and buttoning up by themselves with the help of tools.
Its recreation hall is a favourite haunt of children. After the lesson, they come here to enjoy themselves at sliding and swinging.
Mother of five-year-old Ri Ye Hyon living in Neighbourhood Unit No. 76 of Jonu-dong, Moranbong District, Pyongyang, said: I felt really hopeless when my daughter was diagnosed as autistic. But after receiving two-year-long treatment under the sincerity and care of doctors and nurses at the centre, she now goes to the kindergarten with her friends. I can hardly keep back my tears of gratitude for them.
The children who have recovered their health at the centre thanks to the benefits of free medical care and free education are realizing their hope and dreams at schools together with other normal children.
The KRCCD was founded in March Juche 101 (2012)
