What is a Paediatric Acute Speech and Language Therapist?

A paediatric acute speech and language therapist (SALT) assists children and young adults in the hospital with communication and feeding challenges. They also collaborate with community teams to ensure ongoing support for children after discharge.

SALTs work in various environments, including hospitals, schools, family homes, community spaces, and specialised centres.

 They employ a range of strategies to support children, such as:

• Language intervention activities: Utilising pictures, books, objects, and everyday events to promote language development.
• Articulation therapy: Demonstrating correct sounds and syllables within words and sentences.
• Oral-motor, feeding, and swallowing therapy: Implementing exercises to strengthen mouth muscles for eating, drinking, and swallowing.

Children may be referred for speech therapy for several reasons, including:

• Reduced memory or problem-solving abilities.
• Difficulty expressing basic needs.
• Not combining words by 18 months.
• Stopping the use of previously mastered sounds or words.
