About Kids First in Pocahontas

Serving the children of Northeast Arkansas and the Pocahontas area, Kids First provides care for children with special needs using seven treatment rooms and a dedicated playroom. We work in cooperation with local and state colleges to provide training and observation for students in the nursing, special education and child development fields.

Our clinic director is Rhonda Pattillo, M.Ed.

About Our Clinic’s History

The decision to begin a UAMS Kids First clinic in Pocahontas was strengthened by strong local interest and emphasized by the unanimous support of people who attended a large community meeting held at Black River College.

The original UAMS Kids First was donated by a local manufacturing company. UAMS Kids First relocated to a new location in the mid-1990s in a building designed for children and built by local business interests. In 2009, the clinic moved to the current location, located just down the road from the previous building.

Appointment Information

Evaluation for enrollment at Kids First requires a referral from the child’s primary care physician.

Through the intake process, our interprofessional team of early childhood professionals, occupational, speech, and physical therapists, dietitians, and nurses works with families to conduct evaluations and collect information regarding the child and family’s strengths and needs. Results from the assessments are reviewed by the Kids First team to determine eligibility for services.
