Earlier this week, one of our speech therapists, Kersten Yutzy, M.A., CCC-SLP, who treats both adults and children, had the opportunity to speak with the ENT (Otolaryngology) department at Medical Associates Clinic & Health Plans about the services we offer for patients of all ages.

We love opportunities to educate and collaborate with other healthcare teams — because stronger partnerships mean better care for our community.

🌟 𝗜𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗱 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴? 𝗬𝗼𝘂’𝗿𝗲 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗮𝗹𝗼𝗻𝗲 — 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽 𝗶𝘀 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲!

At Unified Therapy Services, our pediatric speech-language pathologists support children with:

- Clear speech and sound production
- Understanding directions
- Forming sentences and telling stories
- Social communication (turn-taking, eye contact, conversation skills)
- Reading, writing, and comprehension
- Managing frustration related to communication

If your child is difficult to understand, struggles to express their needs, repeats what others say, or seems frustrated when trying to communicate, a speech evaluation could make a big difference.

Early support can build confidence, independence, and stronger connections at home and school. 💛

🛑 Did you see the Iowa's News Now story about Medicaid changes affecting speech therapy coverage in Iowa? Rehab agencies like ours are now limited to one reimbursement “unit” per visit — often a fraction of the actual session — which force shorter appointment times and reduces access to care for the people who need it most.

Now more than ever, we need policymakers to hear from families and providers about the real-world impact of these changes. Let’s amplify these voices — share this story and tag your state representatives and Governor Kim Reynolds to urge thoughtful solutions. ✊

Unified Therapy Serviceshas three clinics in Eastern Iowa - two in Dubuque and one in Waverly that just opened in September.

We were honored to provide in-service training at the new Upper Mississippi Surgery Center in Hazel Green, WI as they prepare to begin total joint surgeries this month.

Our Rehab Director, Michelle Sullivan, PT, recently provided an in-service for their clinical team focused on best practices for caring for post-operative hip patients — including safe techniques for getting in and out of bed, transfers, and car entry/exit following a posterior hip approach.

At Unified Therapy Services, we value collaboration with local healthcare partners to ensure patients receive seamless, high-quality care from surgery through recovery. We’re grateful for the opportunity to work alongside the UMSC team as they expand their services to include total joints.
