Dementia support

Speech therapy has its place in dementia care.

Speech pathologists can help through

  • enhancing and maintaining communication, for example by identifying useful communication strategies or word finding therapy

  • maximising social connection for people living with Dementia and the ones closest to them, for example through communication partner training

  • support swallowing function, through an assessment of eating and drinking habits and behaviours

Whether you are living with or know someone with Alzheimer’s disease, Vascular Dementia, Lewy Body Dementia, Parkinson’s Dementia or Primary Progressive Aphasia.

Get in touch to find out how we can help and support you.
