The Hearing & Speech Center (HSC) provides speech-language pathology services to infants, preschool and school-aged children. Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) provide diagnostic assessments, family education and treatment for children with language and speech disorders due to a variety of causes.
All of the SLPs at HSC have master’s degrees in speech-language pathology, a Certificate of Clinical Competence (CCC) granted by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association and a license from the Board of Speech-Language Pathology and Audiology for the State of Kentucky. In addition, one HSC SLP holds a specialized certification as a certified Listening & Spoken Language Specialist (LSLS). Only four individuals in the state of Kentucky hold this specialized certification.
