There are several situations where seniors need
speech therapy services. Speech therapy can help them recover from the debilitating consequences of stroke, dementia, or head injury.
The treatment usually begins with a comprehensive evaluation of your needs. Once done, your therapy may include these activities in your treatment plan.
- Retraining of swallowing functions if the medical condition has caused swallowing difficulties
- Exercises to strengthen oral muscles
- Breathing exercises to improve vocal resonance
- Activities to improve problem-solving, memory, and cognitive-communication
- Conversational tactics to improve communication skills
Speech therapy offers a variety of benefits for older adults. By creating an individualized treatment plan, speech therapy helps people achieve a higher quality life.
