Intensive Aphasia Treatment Program
Medical research indicates intense therapy over a short period of time can improve speech and language abilities for stroke patients with aphasia. North Memorial is the first hospital in the region to offer this innovative outpatient program that includes many hours of intense therapy over the course of three weeks.
The program is designed to help participants relearn old ways or develop new alternative ways of communicating. Patients participate in a combination of individual and group treatments sessions for approximately three and a half hours per day, five days a week.
