Overall rating
Relentless and dedicated multidisciplinary team
HCAH helped my relative recover within a few months after his accident. I would like to thank the multidisciplinary team for their relentless efforts and dedicated coordination. Thanks to the readily available doctors, the physiotherapy team, the psy... chologist, the speech and swallow therapist, and the dietician. Everyone was very kind. They gently guided us and always updated us on his progress. He was very demotivated when he had first arrived. He was not able to walk or eat. But now he is eating, walking, and sounding like himself again. I am very delighted with the experience of seeing him get better. The room provided to us was very clean. I am very happy with the overall recovery experience in HCAH.

Faster recovery, Much cheaper than hospital
Physiotherapy at HCAH Transition Care Center is excellent and this is one of the finest physiotherapy centers in Hyderabad. The doctors are available 24/7. All the staff members are hard working and go beyond to help the patient recover. Their packag... es are also very affordable. My uncle was admitted here with a spine injury. His condition was very concerning at the time of admission. He was not able to move his legs of even move in bed. Now after 4 months of physiotherapy, he can walk with a little help. The HCAH staff is very friendly and cooperative, the rooms are well maintained, and every possible help is provided.

Advanced Rehab equipment available only at HCAH
My cousin was admitted to HCAH for a spinal injury. On admission, he was on tracheostomy and RT tubes and was not able to walk but now he is eating by himself and walking with support. This has all been possible because of the amazing physiotherapy t... eam and the highest quality equipment that is available only at HCAH. I would like to thank them for their aggressive and consistent treatment. And for world class facilities like the tilt table, anti-gravity table to ensure a speedy recovery. I strongly recommend HCAH as the best Rehab center in Bangalore.

Rediscovering Communication with Speech & Swallow Therapy at HCAH
Navigating the complexities of speech and swallowing issues after a major medical event can be both sensitive and intricate.
Our Speech and Language Therapy & Swallow Therapy programs are designed to help you regain these essential life skills, offering a comprehensive approach that addresses your unique challenges.
According to medical studies, as many as 40% of stroke survivors experience aphasia, a condition that impairs language processing and they need aphasia therapy. While intelligence remains unaffected, the ability to understand, read, and write can be severely compromised.
Personalized Treatment Plans
Our speech therapists conduct thorough assessments to create individualized treatment plans tailored to your specific needs. Utilizing a range of innovative strategies, we focus on retraining your language retrieval skills.
Group speaking therapy is often recommended to enhance conversational abilities, employing methods like role-playing to simulate real-world interactions, such as speaking on the phone or conversing with a sales clerk.
Speech problems often stem from developmental delays, neurological conditions (like Stroke), structural issues (such as cleft palate), or hearing impairments.
Swallowing problems typically arise from neurological conditions (e.g., stroke), structural abnormalities (e.g., narrowing of oesophagus, muscle weakness (e.g., aging), or treatment side effects (e.g., radiation therapy).
Five signs of swallowing difficulty include:
Coughing or choking while eating or drinking.
Feeling like food is getting stuck in the throat or chest.
Taking longer than usual to chew or swallow food.
Gurgling sounds during or after swallowing.
Recurrent pneumonia or chest infections due to food or liquid entering the airway (aspiration).
The swallow test is a procedure conducted by a speech-language pathologist to assess a patient's ability to swallow safely and effectively. During the test, the speech-language pathologist observes the patient as they drink liquids and eat various food consistencies. They assess the patient's oral and pharyngeal swallowing function, looking for signs of difficulty or aspiration (when food or liquid enters the airway).
A speech therapist helps individuals who struggle with speaking, understanding, or swallowing. They'll evaluate your abilities, and then create a plan to address your specific needs. This might involve practicing speech exercises, learning new ways to communicate, or finding strategies to make eating and drinking safer and easier. Throughout the process, they'll guide and support you to improve your communication skills and overall quality of life.
Speech therapy can be highly successful for many individuals, leading to significant improvements in communication and swallowing abilities. Success rates vary based on factors such as condition severity and individual response to treatment.
A 3-year-old might not be talking much due to normal variability, undiagnosed hearing loss, developmental delays, limited exposure to language-rich environments, or family history. Consulting a paediatrician or speech-language pathologist can provide insights and support.
Individuals who experience difficulties with communication or swallowing, including speech disorders, language disorders, swallowing disorders, voice disorders, cognitive-communication disorders, developmental delays, autism spectrum disorder, neurological conditions, and structural abnormalities, may benefit from speech therapy.
