Frequently Asked Questions
What is Speech Therapy?
Speech Therapy is a treatment for speech and language disorders. It involves exercises and techniques that improve communication skills. Speech therapy can help individuals with a variety of conditions including stuttering, articulation disorders, and language disorders.
What is teletherapy for speech-language pathology, and how does it work?
Teletherapy is a convenient and effective way to deliver speech and language services remotely through secure video technology. Our licensed Speech-Language Pathologists (SLPs) and Assistants connect with students via interactive virtual sessions, using engaging tools customized for each child. This approach helps districts provide expert care regardless of location or scheduling constraints.
How do you ensure the quality and effectiveness of teletherapy services?
Our clinicians are licensed, experienced, and trained specifically in telepractice methods. We use evidence-based techniques and regularly track student progress with assessments and data collection. Our teletherapy sessions are interactive and tailored, ensuring meaningful engagement and outcomes comparable to in-person therapy.
How do you protect student privacy and comply with education laws?
We are committed to safeguarding student privacy by strictly following federal and state laws such as FERPA and HIPAA. Our teletherapy platform is secure and encrypted to protect information. Our clinicians receive ongoing training to maintain the highest standards of confidentiality and ethics.
What speech and language disorders can teletherapy address?
Teletherapy effectively supports a wide range of communication challenges including articulation, language delays, fluency, voice disorders, and social communication. We also assist students using augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) devices.
How can teletherapy help with staffing shortages in schools?
Teletherapy offers districts flexible, reliable access to licensed SLPs without needing on-site staff. This helps fill temporary vacancies, manage increased caseloads, and ensures consistent student support. We provide contract clinicians for both short-term and long-term staffing solutions tailored to your district’s needs.
What technology is required for teletherapy sessions?
Students will need a computer, or tablet with a camera and microphone, plus a stable internet connection. We provide support and guidance to families and schools to ensure smooth technology setup and session quality.
How do you coordinate teletherapy with existing school programs?
Our clinicians work closely with school administrators, teachers, and support staff to align therapy goals with IEPs and classroom activities. We participate in team meetings and provide regular updates to ensure seamless integration and student success.
How do you measure student progress and share results?
We use standardized assessments and ongoing data collection to monitor student growth. Progress reports are shared regularly with families and district teams, and therapy plans are updated collaboratively based on each student’s needs.
What are the key benefits of teletherapy for school districts?
· Improved Access: Reach students in remote or underserved areas without travel.
· Flexible Scheduling: Sessions can fit easily into school and family routines.
