This is the first and most important step in understanding the child’s condition and determining his/her treatment needs. Here our specialized team performs:
1 - Online assessment using GMFM APP+
At Free Tom Move Center, we have the electronic version of GMFM APP+, which helps us enter the patient’s data electronically after evaluating about 88 of the child’s motor skills, including lying down, rolling, crawling, sitting, standing, climbing and descending stairs, and obtaining the child’s motor level, motor age, and a chart of the child’s development and growth, in addition to a barcode for evaluating each case, which helps parents view the evaluation result in the event of going to see orthopedic and neurological doctors. All this is done with the click of a button, enabling us to obtain accurate results from 95 to 98 %.
GMFM APP+ It is a digital version of the GMFM assessment and is used to facilitate the assessment process and analysis of results.
The app offers many features, including:

- Visually display data: The app displays results graphically, making it easier to understand changes in a child's performance over time.
