Assessments
Our speech pathology assessments use a combination of informal and standardised tests depending on the needs and ability of the child. Following assessment, a summary or comprehensive report is available and an individualised therapy program is developed.
We offer an assessment only service for those children requiring an assessment. This is a good option for children waiting for a therapy spot, for school based / NDIS funding purposes or to give families a starting point to work with the child whilst waiting for a regular therapy appointment.
