Services Offered

Our speech therapy, alongside our skilled nursing in Davie, Florida, is delivered in the comfort of your home, ensuring that you receive the best care without the stress of traveling. We offer a wide range of therapeutic interventions to address speech, language, and swallowing difficulties. Explore the services we offer to help you achieve your communication goals:

  • Aural (Hearing) Rehabilitation
    For clients with hearing impairments, we provide rehabilitation techniques aimed at improving hearing comprehension and communication. This service helps individuals better adapt to hearing aids, cochlear implants, or other assistive devices, while also enhancing overall communication skills.
  • Cognition Exercises
    Cognitive challenges often accompany speech and language disorders. Our therapists provide targeted cognitive exercises to improve memory, attention, problem-solving, and processing speed, all of which support clearer, more effective communication.
  • Dysphagia (Swallowing) Training
    Dysphagia, or difficulty swallowing, can lead to serious health complications if left untreated. Our speech therapists work with clients to improve swallowing function, reduce the risk of aspiration, and teach safe eating and drinking practices that protect the airway and promote nutrition.
  • Home Speech and Language Exercise Programs
    To maximize progress, we create individualized home exercise programs that encourage continued improvement outside of therapy sessions. These exercises help reinforce the skills learned during therapy and ensure long-term success in communication.
  • Non-oral Communication Teaching
    For clients who cannot speak verbally, we teach alternative communication methods, such as sign language or communication boards, to help them express themselves effectively and maintain social connections.
  • Orientation to Communication Options/Alternatives
    We assess clients’ specific communication needs and introduce adaptive communication technologies, including speech-generating devices or apps, ensuring they have the tools necessary for clear and efficient communication.
  • Training on the Use of Adaptive Speech Devices
    For clients utilizing speech-generating devices or other assistive communication technology, we provide comprehensive training to ensure they are used correctly and effectively, improving overall communication and quality of life.
