Bayhealth Foundation Hosts Speech Pathology Information Session

The Bayhealth Foundation recently organized an informative session on speech pathology, held at the Heritage Shores community. The event featured presentations from Bayhealth's speech pathology department.

At Bayhealth, speech pathologists evaluate, diagnose, treat and educate family members about speech, language, communication, and swallowing disorders.

During the session, Rehabilitation Services Manager Meredith Sullivan, MS, CCC-SLP, FACHE, MBA, and Speech Pathology Supervisor Ashley Jones, MS, CCC-SLP, shed light on the distinctive tests offered by Bayhealth, with a particular focus on the FEES test (fiberoptic endoscopic evaluation of swallowing). This procedure involves the insertion of a scope through the nose, providing a comprehensive view of the throat. 

Bayhealth's commitment to providing cutting-edge healthcare solutions is exemplified by their investment in state-of-the-art technology and specialized testing. By offering the FEES test, Bayhealth ensures that their speech pathologists have access to the most accurate and comprehensive diagnostic tools available. This enables them to deliver personalized treatment plans and improve patient outcomes.
