Speech Therapy
Our Speech Pathologists help our clients to:
Functional communication Our Speech Pathologists can conduct a Functional Communication Assessment that identifies the interventions and support therapies needed for individuals with complex communication needs. We use a consultative framework to work collaboratively with the client and the people who support them. Multimodal communication Where augmented or alternative communication systems (AAC) are needed, our Speech Pathologists can tailor these for the individual and train them and their support system in their use. AAC might include key word signs, visual and tech supports like speech generating devices and apps for mainstream devices. Mealtime management Our Speech Pathologists have the skills and expertise to complete swallowing assessments and mealtime management plans. These plans assist people with complex swallowing difficulties and behaviours which place them at risk of choking. We support individuals in the home or out in the community, such as attending day programs or in the workplace.
