Many patients benefit from speech therapy. Not only do patients come to Mercyhealth for help regaining or achieving their speaking abilities, they also come to work on problematic muscles that aid in chewing and swallowing.
Our certified speech and language pathologists identify, evaluate and treat a wide range of speech, voice, language, cognitive-communication, and swallowing disorders that can result from stroke, head injury, dementia, complex medical conditions, and developmental delay in adults and children.
We help our patients develop effective communication and cognitive skills, as well as return to a safe diet using current, best practice clinical skills and interventions.
