Speech and Language Therapy -Children ( see Children's Speech SLT)

Clients are referred to the service.  This can be done by a professional with the permission of a person who has parental responsibility or can be done directly by a person with parental responsibility.  This is usually a parent or carer.  Where a young person is able to give consent, they may also self-refer.

As a service we work in episodes of care.   This means that:

  • We assess children and find out what they need to practise
  • We decide what they need to practise first. Most children do better if we pick 1 or 2 things at a time
  • We help them to do the practice
  • We show parents and carers how to practise their child
