Speech-Language Therapy

About

Our outpatient Speech-Language Therapy program assists patients in recovering communication and swallowing skills lost due to disorders, illnesses, or injuries. Working with our speech-language pathologist, tailored programs are developed to ensure each patient achieves their highest functional communication level.

To create personalized programs, our team initially evaluates patients in the following areas:

  • Speech
  • Language
  • Hearing
  • Swallowing function
  • Cognition

Common reasons for requiring speech-language therapy include the inability to express or understand language, chronic hoarseness, slurred speech, damaged vocal cords, and swallowing difficulties. Additionally, various disorders and conditions can contribute to these challenges, such as:

  • Aphasia
  • Apraxia
  • Dysarthria
  • Stuttering
  • ALS
  • Alzheimer’s disease
  • Oral and throat cancers
  • Stroke
  • Traumatic brain injury (TBI)
  • And more
