Our Speech/Language Pathologists (SLPs) evaluate and treat disorders of communication.

This may include disorders of speech, language, cognition and swallowing. Our therapy programs are designed to maximize an individual's ability to understand and communicate with family members, caregivers, employers and staff.

Therapists develop a treatment program based upon an initial evaluation in cooperation with the client and appropriate personnel.
