Speech- Language Pathology

Speech-Language Pathologists (SLP), diagnose, treat and help to prevent disorders related to speech, language, cognitive-communication, voice, swallowing and fluency. Our Speech-Language Pathologists have a certificate of clinical competence from the American Speech Language-Hearing Association (ASHA).

Speech-Language Pathologists work with people who have difficulty articulating speech sounds; those with speech rhythm and fluency problems, such as stuttering; people with voice disorders, such as inappropriate pitch or harsh voice; those with problems understanding and expressing language such as aphasia; and those with cognitive-communication impairments, such as attention, memory and problem solving disorders. They also work with individuals who experience swallowing difficulties.

Adults may experience communication and/or swallowing difficulties for a variety of reasons, including Stroke, Traumatic Brain Injury, Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis, Parkinson’s Disease, Dementia, and Head/Neck Cancer. Our Speech-Language Pathologists perform Videofluoroscopic Swallowing Studies, in conjunction with the Radiologist, and in accordance with ASHA’s best practice guidelines for the identification and treatment of swallowing disorders (Dysphagia).

Occupational Therapy

We provide treatments with a focus on restoring/improving functional skills and movements, decrease pain, discomfort, and edema to improve ability to perform daily activities for self-care and leisure. Our goal is to help patients live independent, productive, satisfying lives.
