Stroke or Other Neurological Damage:
Adults:
There are many conditions that affect speech and language. We have experience in dealing with a variety of diseases/ disorders affecting various areas of the brain and neuro-motor/sensory systems. Rehabilitation of speech and communication is the top priority for most patients and their families. Often speech therapy needs to be combined with oral/ motor and swallowing treatment. Augmentative communication may need to be part of the over-all treatment.
Other areas of treatment can include evaluation and rehabilitation of reading, writing, problem solving, organization and other activities of daily living. Cognitive treatment may be necessary. Our staff has extensive treatment experience in hospital rehabilitation settings and home and community reentry programs. When prognosis for complete recovery is fair to poor, our staff can help in developing compensatory strategies to allow patients the maximum independence and functionality. We are experienced in teaming with occupational and physical therapists in the development of a complete therapeutic program.
Children:
Trained in Picture Exchange Communication Systems (PECS), augmentative communication, and development of support groups for parents.
