Assessment of speech, language, communication and swallowing disorders using formal and informal assessment
Our specialist speech and language therapy practice offers a comprehensive speech, language, communication and swallowing assessment in Birmingham, Solihull and across the West Midlands at a venue to suit your needs.
Adult neurological speech, language and swallowing assessment
To enable us to determine the exact nature of your (or your friend's /relative's) speech, language or swallowing difficulties your specialist adult neurological speech and language therapist will undertake an assessment. This will either be formal ( i.e. it will be using an assessment that has standardised measures) or informal (has no published standardised measures) or, more likely, a mixture of the two. The precise type of assessment carried out will be dependant upon your/their needs. The results will enable your adult neurological speech and language therapist to form a plan for your therapy, set goals and may be used as a baseline to measure improvements over time.
Speech and Language Therapy Assessment for Children
Assessment of young children will often centre around play and observation of speech and language skills within this context. A full case history of your child’s speech and language difficulties will also be taken at the initial appointment. Prior to your first speech and language therapy session, you will receive a copy of the Specialist Speech Therapy pre-appointment questionnaire. If you can complete this questionnaire and return it to us prior to the appointment, the treating therapist can plan more comprehensively for the assessment.form.
We offer a free, no-obligation discussion of your speech and language therapy need or the needs of your family member, resident or pupil. Contact us today to see if we can help.
We also offer detailed assessments to inform our comprehensive medico-legal reports for both children and adults across the UK and internationally. Our specialist speech and language therapists have received training in medico-legal reports and giving evidence for both adult acquired neurological speech and language therapy needs and for special educational needs tribunals.
