Speech Therapy

Not being able to communicate effectively can be devastating...

Our Speech Therapists work to improve our clients’ ability to speak — or to communicate effectively via augmentative communication devices. Speech Therapists also address important safety issues relating to breathing, swallowing and chewing. We also have pediatric speech therapy available.

Some of our key in-home services include:

• Restorative speech therapy for individuals who have lost some ability to speak due to aphasia, cognitive/memory loss, or other conditions;
• Swallow assessments to ensure safety, prevent pneumonia, and determine dietary recommendations;
• Neuromuscular electrical stimulation to improve oral muscle control;
• Home programming for patients, and training for care providers;
• Augmentative communication assessments and training — from low-tech systems to speech-generating devices.
