Speech-Language Pathology Print E-mail

Speech Therapy
Speech-Language Pathologists address disorders that affect a person's speech, language, cognition, voice, and/or swallowing through prevention, diagnosis, habilitation and rehabilitation. At the Center, a certified Speech-Language Pathologist provides therapy to target identified areas of disorder and/or delay through individual, co-treatment and peer group treatment. An individualized treatment plan is developed for each patient following evaluation.

 

Nursing and Rehabilitative Care (NRC) patients often receive therapy services to target developmental progression of expressive and receptive language skills including the use of augmentative and/or alternative communication (AAC); hearing screenings and aural habilitation; and developmental progression of oral motor skills required for speech and swallowing.
