Celebrating the Heroes of Communication: The Crucial Role of Speech Pathologists

Speech Pathologists are the backbone to successful rehabilitation for those dealing with speech, language, voice, cognition, and swallowing due to strokes, brain injuries, and many other conditions. May is Better Hearing and Speech Month, but we are recognizing the work and contributions of speech-language pathologists to our healthcare team today.

Watch Allison Temple, a speech-language pathologist at Inova Mount Vernon Hospital, who uses biofeedback technology to help a patient improve their swallow function.

The world-class rehabilitation team at Inova helps people reclaim independent, active lives after an accident, injury, or illness. Learn more about our specialized rehabilitation services.
