What Can You Do If You Suspect A Speech, Language, Or Hearing Problem?
A thorough evaluation by a speech-language pathologist or audiologist is needed to determine a person's communication strengths and weaknesses. After this evaluation, the speech-language pathologist or audiologist will be able to provide a plan for meeting individual needs.
What Is A Speech-Language Pathologist
A speech-language pathologist is a professional educated in the study of human communication, its development, and its disorders. by evaluating the speech and language skills of children and adults, the speech-language pathologist determines if communication problems exist and decides the best way to treat these problems.
What Is An Audiologist?
An audiologist is a professional educated in the study of normal and impaired hearing. The audiologist determines if a person has a hearing impairment, what type of impairment it is, and how the individual can make the best use of remaining hearing. If a person will benefit from using hearing aids or other listening devices, the audiologist can assist with the selection, fitting, and purchase of the most appropriate aids and with training the individual to use the aid effectively.
