Your therapist will:
> Take a case history, which will include questions about your child’s early development, so it may be helpful to bring their red book along
> Discuss how your child is communicating at the moment
> Do some observations which may be through play/games
> Discuss your main concerns and what you hope to get from working with our service
> May do some informal/formal assessment
> Discuss the next steps with you
Speech and Language Therapy input may be delivered in a variety of ways. Assessment may be via:
> A phone call
> A video call
> Face to face – in clinic or at your child’s educational setting (please note: in current COVID times the therapist is required to wear PPE including a mask/visor, apron and gloves, and maintain social distancing where possible)
Intervention given will depend on your child and what support they need.
