🥄 Myths about swallowing as we age — and the truth behind them:

🚫 “Choking during meals is just part of getting older.”
✅ Choking is never normal. It’s a sign your swallow may need support — and therapy can make eating safer and more comfortable.

🚫 “Throat clearing during and after meals can’t be fixed.”
✅ Often, throat clearing is a sign of residue or airway protection issues — both treatable with targeted exercises and techniques.

🚫 “I have to accept I can’t eat certain foods anymore.”
✅ Not true! A speech-language pathologist can help you find safe ways to enjoy your favorite foods again with simple strategies or texture modifications.

🍽️ You don’t have to settle for less.

At SSNR, we offer highly specialized swallowing therapies.

Person-Centered Care Means Putting YOU First

At SSNR, we don’t just treat symptoms - we partner with you.

Every session is built on four key principles:

⭐️ Respect & Dignity – Your experiences, preferences, and goals matter.

⭐️ Information Sharing – We help you understand your care every step of the way.

⭐️ Participation – You take an active role in setting and achieving goals that matter to you

⭐️ Collaboration – We work with you, your family, and your healthcare team

Because communication, swallowing, and cognition are more than just functions - they’re part of who you are.

🚨 Emergencies can happen anywhere, are you ready when one occurs?

To prepare for an emergency in your home or in the community, we recommend:

➡️ Establishing a network of reliable contacts (family, neighbors, friends)
➡️ Keeping a “Go-Bag” with medication lists, DNR forms, and insurance information.
➡️ Making sure critical health information is easy for medical teams to find
➡️ Including plans for pets, service animals, and dependents.
➡️ Ensuring that multiple caregivers can safely operate assistive devices, such as power chairs, oxygen, or a pump.

Preparation reduces panic and promotes safety when every second counts.

“Why won’t this TV work?!”

If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Many people with dementia struggle with remotes that have too many buttons- leading to frustration, confusion, and missing their favorite show

If this is happening to someone you know try:

✅ Creating a simple visual “cheat sheet” for quick reference
✅ Cover extra buttons with painter’s tape
✅ Switching to an easy remote

These small adjustments can make a big difference in confidence and independence at home.

🧠 At SSNR we go beyond the remote.

We help families build personalized strategies for memory, problem-solving, and communication to make everyday life smoother and less stressful.

Apraxia – trouble planning the movements to speak

We work closely with patients and their families to rebuild confidence, improve communication, and support safe eating and drinking habits.

Your goals are our priority.
