How To Get Started—Initial Evaluation
Even if you’re not sure if your child needs services, it’s always best to request an evaluation. We use a simple four-step process to help you get started.
1
Call Our Office
Before calling our office, please have a copy of your insurance card available to share with a member of our staff. When you call, we will ask a few questions about your child to determine if we have the services your child needs.
2
Get a Referral
Call your primary care physician’s office and request that they send a referral to RISE Pediatric Therapies. Our fax number is (208) 467-1462.
3
Complete Intake Paperwork
Once we receive the referral, we’ll send you a link to our electronic medical record system to complete your intake paperwork. After that’s done, we’ll schedule your evaluation. The intake packet must be completed by 6:00 p.m. the day before your appointment. If it isn’t, we’ll need to reschedule.
If you have any questions or trouble completing the packet, please call our office as soon as possible.

Come to Your First Appointment
Please arrive 10–15 minutes before your scheduled appointment to ensure all paperwork is completed and all documents are signed and dated.
Once the initial evaluation is completed, we’ll develop a coordinated care plan for therapy.
Improve Feeding Disorders
Make mealtimes a fun time. Our pediatric feeding therapy in Nampa is designed to help children who have swallowing or feeding delays or disorders. We’ll work with your child to improve their functional skills and make sure you understand how to continue the therapy at home.
Myofunctional Therapy
Disorders such as tongue thrust, tongue tie, and TMJ are all muscle control issues involving the face, mouth, or throat. pediatric myofunctional therapy can retrain these muscles and help your child gain better control, improving many of the functions dependent on these muscles. We offer this service in Nampa.
Speech & Language Therapy
From fluency to comprehension and everything in between, children sometimes benefit from therapy to fully express themselves and participate in conversation. We offer speech and language therapy at our Boise location to help with disabilities, delays, and disorders, which can then enhance academic performance and social skills. Remember, we also provide free speech and language screenings for children ages 1-7.
Occupational Therapy
If your child struggles with basic everyday skills like dressing, playing, and schoolwork, occupational therapy can help them increase their functional skills and their self-confidence too. At RISE Pediatric Therapies, we will assess your child and design a program tailored to improve their weaknesses, allowing them to excel to the best of their ability.
