Comparing schools to heath care is like apples and oranges.
Though there are a lot of similarities, the ability to intersect and intervene in child care, and child development is at a higher priority. At the young age, we have a number of people come through, with evaluations and meetings for all childern, be they special needs or not. Though I don't work in a hospital, I can think that there are less people coming through all the time, and the need to intervene is at a lower level.
