assessment
After a screening is complete, if it is determined that further intervention is required, an assessment will be administered. A thorough assessment is a process that confirms the proper diagnosis and helps us to decide the best route of intervention on your path to better communication wellness.
An assessment is a personalized, in depth process of gathering necessary information that includes an interview of the patient and/or the caregiver, formal and informal assessment procedures, results and interpretation, diagnostic data, treatment plan of care, and any further recommendations.
Areas of assessment include: oral motor, articulation and phonology, receptive and expressive language, voice & fluency.
Specialized assessment and treatment is offered in the areas of feeding and swallowing (including candidacy for Vital Stim Treatment), aural rehabilitation, as well as augmentative
and alternative communication.
