Speech therapy for seniors is often necessary when recovering from the debilitating consequences of a stroke or dementia. It may also be necessary after a head injury. The ability to communicate effectively is important at any age, but for seniors it can be vital. If a senior cannot successfully describe what they need, where they hurt, or what is wrong in general, an emergency can easily occur. Therapy provided by a qualified speech pathologist can help to improve speech and understanding impacted by brain damage, improve speech impacted by muscular problems, improve swallowing, and prevent unhealthy weight loss.

Today we welcome back Beth Timko with CarDon & Associates to discuss when speech therapy might be beneficial and how.
