At Langenthal Hospital, our speech therapist treats people with speech, language, voice and swallowing disorders. After a comprehensive assessment, she will discuss the content of the therapy with you.

Treatment of adults
Speech, language, voice and swallowing disorders often occur in adults after brain injuries such as stroke, traumatic brain injury, tumors or degenerative diseases.

Treatment of children
Severe speech acquisition disorders, swallowing problems, stuttering or difficulties with reading and writing are the areas of treatment for children. The therapy is offered in an age-appropriate and playful way.

Goals
The goal of every therapy is to achieve the greatest possible communicative competence and/or confident swallowing. In order to enjoy speaking, children need to experience that they can make a difference with speech. Those affected, relatives and caregivers are given advice and support until the therapy can be completed. The speech therapist maintains an exchange with other professionals involved.

Language therapy treatments take place both on an outpatient and inpatient basis.

Registrations for a speech therapy assessment or therapy can be made by doctors, specialist agencies, relatives and parents.
