Our speech therapy department is able to provide the therapy services necessary to help a patient maintain or improve vital communication, swallowing and cognitive skills. Communication is our most human characteristic. Safe swallowing allows us to maintain adequate nutrition and hydration. Improved cognitive skills help ensure our safety and independence. All are essential to learning, working, and enjoying family life and friendships.
