The Speech Therapy service provides a full range of auditory and speech language pathology services, all aimed at improving a patient’s communication, cognitive and linguistic skills, hearing and swallowing abilities.  Our licensed therapist conducts a thorough diagnostic evaluation and develops an appropriate treatment plan, incorporating patient/family education components and necessary follow-up services. The program can help individuals who are tracheostomy or ventilator dependent or who have language delays or disorders, or who have hearing or swallowing disorders.
