What are the alarm signals that orient you to Speech Therapy?

 

Pediatric Patients

  • Before the age of 12 months it is considered normal for children to interact verbally through sounds. These sounds are then the precursors of speech.
  • If the baby does not make sounds until 12 months this is considered an alarm sign.
  • Around the age of 12 to 15 months, children begin to imitate sounds in their mother tongue and say single words. At this time they follow single commands.
  • If at this time the child does not say any syllable, no simple word, the child is referred for special follow-up in Speech Therapy.
  • From the age of 18 to 24 months is the time when vocabulary grows and children begin to combine two words creating pairs of phrases.
  • If the child is in the sound or syllable stage this is considered disturbing.
  • At the moment when the child is between the ages of 2 and 3 and the speech is interrupted, the vocabulary is reduced and the expression is not present, it is time to start speech therapy .

Adult Patients

After accidents or injuries of neurological character, areas responsible for expression and understanding are affected, the patient is referred for Speech Therapy.

Geriatric Patients

As a result of the impact of concomitant diseases and the history of medications, the impact of responsible swallowing structures becomes more evident. In this case, Speech Therapy will help the patient to restore these structures.
