Stroke or Other Neurological Damage
|
Conditions that affect speech and language are many. We have experience in dealing with a variety of diseases 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, either electronic or a simple pointing or eye-gaze system may need to be a part of over-all treatment. |
Other areas of treatment can include evaluation and rehabilitation of reading, writing, problem solving, organization and other activities of daily living. 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.
