From Wikipedia

Speech-language therapists (or pathologists) provide a wide range of services for all ages from birth to very old age, in early intervention (ages 0-3 years old), preschools, schools, hospitals, home care, rehabilitation centers, and nursing homes. Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) work with individuals who have physical and/or cognitive deficits/disorders resulting in difficulty communicating. Communication includes speech (articulation, intonation, rate, intensity) and language (phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics, both receptive and expressive language, including reading and writing). SLPs alsp provide services for individuals with dysphagia (difficulty swallowing)
