Speech Therapy
Speech pathologists (also known as speech therapists) evaluate, diagnose and treat patients with a wide variety of conditions that affect oral motor skills, swallowing, speech, language and cognitive abilities. Speech pathologists at Longview Regional Medical Center work closely with physicians, nurses, dietitians, the patient and their family to thoroughly evaluate patients and treat a variety of conditions. Our speech pathologists are AmpCare certified. We offer biofeedback for swallowing treatment and each treatment plan is customized to fit the patient's specific needs. Our diets are standardized utilizing the most up-to-date practice through IDDSI (International Dysphagia Diet Standardisation Initiative). All of the treatment plans developed at LRMC IPR are evidence based.
