The
Speech & Hearing Department includes pediatric occupational and
physical therapies as well as speech-language pathology and audiology
services. Our team of professionals is experienced in the evaluation and
treatment of a wide range of medical, physical, and developmental
disorders that affect children.
Each play-based therapy session is conducted in a child-friendly
environment with a focus on the specific goals established during the
child’s evaluation. Therapy activities are designed to meet the
individual needs of each child, and parents are encouraged to
participate in the sessions to facilitate carryover of the trained
skills to other environments.
The ROPeS team is dedicated to providing fun and effective therapeutic
care for each child. We understand and emphasize the importance of
individualized therapy planning and are committed to the achievement of
every child’s goals.
Thanks to our expanding staff and flexible hours, the department has
immediate openings for therapy and evaluations. For more information or
to schedule an appointment, call 484.227.3370.
