Roy Roberson is Patient of the Month for Encore Rehabilitation-Hartselle

“I have Parkinson’s Disease and I am participating in the PWR!Moves Program (Parkinson’s Wellness Recovery) I chose Encore because I have used them for several years as my rehab provider.” ~ Mr. Roy Roberson

Mr. Roberson brings a great attitude into each of our PWR! Program sessions. We are very proud to have Mr. Roberson as our Patient of the Month for Encore Rehabilitation-Hartselle. Congratulations, Mr. Roberson!

Speech Support for those with Parkinson’s: SPEAK OUT!® & The LOUD Crowd®

Speak OUT! with Ocean Springs Neuroscience Center #EncoreRehab

 

Ocean Springs Neuroscience Center is pleased to now offer a two-part speech therapy program to help individuals with Parkinson’s regain and maintain effective communication: SPEAK OUT!® followed by The LOUD Crowd®.

SPEAK OUT!® places emphasis on speaking with intent and converting speech from an automatic function to an intentional act. Together, patients and their speech-language pathologist work through a series of speech, voice, and cognitive exercises outlined in a SPEAK OUT!® Workbook.

Upon completion of SPEAK OUT!®, patients transition to The LOUD Crowd®. This maintenance program consists of weekly group sessions led by a speech-language pathologist. The SPEAK OUT!® exercises are performed, and group members provide support, encouragement, and accountability to one another.

Participation in The LOUD Crowd®, along with daily home practice and six-month re-evaluations, has been shown to help patients maintain their communication skills throughout the progression of Parkinson’s.

For more information about SPEAK OUT!® and The LOUD Crowd® or to schedule a speech evaluation, please call 228-818-1207.
