Speech Therapy

Our speech pathologists help with communication,
mealtimes, and swallowing

Care Squared’s speech pathologists support adults with disability who have difficulty with communication, mealtimes, and swallowing.

We provide practical, everyday support that helps people stay safe, be understood, and take part in daily life. Communication and mealtimes are central to choice, dignity, and wellbeing, and often involve the people who support you.

We work with you to understand how you currently communicate, how mealtimes are managed, and what supports are in place. Together, we identify what’s working, what needs support, and goals that fit into everyday life.

Mealtime and Dysphagia Support
Swallowing difficulties can make eating and drinking unsafe or uncomfortable. The right support can reduce risks and improve mealtime experiences.

Our speech pathologists help by:

• Assessing swallowing safety and mealtime risks
• Recommending food and drink textures when needed
• Developing practical strategies to reduce choking and aspiration risk
• Creating clear Mealtime Management Plans
• Providing training for you, your support workers, families, and carers
• Reviewing and adjusting supports as needs change

Our focus is on what works in real mealtimes, with clear guidance and consistent support.

Communication and AAC support

We support adults with complex communication needs, including people who use little or no spoken language.

Ways we can help:

• Identify effective everyday communication methods
• Assess and recommend Augmentative and Alternative Communication (AAC) including speech-generating devices, communication books and Key Word Sign
• Support the everyday use of AAC across home and community settings
• Ensure communication systems are meaningful and used consistently
• Develop your ability to understand information, communicate ideas, plan and organise your thinking, and improve how speech sounds are made
• Build the skills and confidence of support workers and families

Our focus is on communication that works in daily life, not just in appointments.
