Summer is just around the corner. Almost time for cook outs, pool parties, ice cream trucks and a whole lot of speech and language therapy. Wait…what?
Did you know that TheraCare is offering an intensive speech and language therapy program this summer in TWO locations? Here are five answers to our most frequently asked questions about TheraCare’s Intensive Summer Program:
- What is the “Intensive Summer Program”?
An 8-week program designed to provide short, intensive daily speech and language therapy services 3-4 days a week in a one-on-one setting to maximize your child’s progress and chance for success.
- Why would my child benefit from this program?
If your child:
- Receives speech therapy from school during the school year, but no services over the summer
- Has been identified as needing speech therapy but you haven’t gotten started yet
- Is exhibiting some errors with speech and language skills but hasn’t been tested yet
- Receives speech therapy somewhere but is only seen once a week or is making minimal progress
If you the parent:
- Are worried your child won’t maintain his or her speech and language progress over the summer
- Have concerns about your child’s speech and language skills but don’t know where to get started
- Are dissatisfied with the rate of progress your child is making in speech and language therapy
This program is for you!
- When and where is it?
We now have TWO locations, our Springfield TheraCare clinic, and a new intensive summer program location in Branson!
Here are the dates:
Springfield
June 5-July 28th (no sessions on July 4th)
Branson
May 30th-July 28th (no sessions July 4th or June 5th-9th)
- Does it really work?
In short, YES! Out of 25 students who participated in all sessions of the intensive program at TheraCare last summer, five of them discharged from speech therapy, no longer requiring services in schools or the medical setting. On average, these children met three goals during the eight week program.
