When most people hear the term “speech therapist”, they think of someone who helps individuals improve their ability to talk and articulate. While it is true that speech therapists do help individuals resolve these issues, they also do a lot more to help individuals suffering from other problems.
Our Goal is to help individuals improve the ability to express wants/needs within all environments at appropriate level. This may include speech, voice, receptive or expressive language. We can also tailor communication boards if needed and provide education on hearing.
In many cases individuals may experience swallowing disorders, dental issues, or even the desire to determine if current diet/liquids are safe and appropriate. Let our SLP’s provide recommendations and if needed facilitate swallowing exercises or Vital Stim treatment. This treatment is top notch and uses electrical stimulation in conjunction with traditional exercises to strengthen and restore swallowing functions.
Whether in the home or at a facility we have strategies that enhance memory skills at every level and excellent education provided to caregivers on an individual’s Best Ability to Function.
Our Speech Therapists will use their expert tools of evaluation to assess and diagnose patients and will come up with a symptom-specific treatment program to help them achieve their goals. In many cases, out therapists use VitalStim Technology, a premier technology that uses electrical stimulation, in conjunction with traditional exercises, to strengthen and restore swallowing function.
