wasuup Report post Posted November 17, 2009 They will take a history from you from birth until the present date. Then assess him. Good Luck x Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sally44 Report post Posted November 18, 2009 Is this your first meeting with SALT? If so it will be to take a history and observe the child. They may also use some toys or pictures to see how your child reacts to them and responds to language. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Paula Report post Posted November 19, 2009 Not to be pessimistick but i found speech and language a utter waste of time where my son was concerend..............at one stage they said my sons speech was impaired because i spoke with a strong yorkshire acent there fore how did i expect him to learn to speak..............i chucked her out the house.............we had home visits coz at the time me son wouldnt leave the house...............she never came back againe and i never went to another speach and language appointment. My sons conversational skills improved all of there own accord in time without any intervention. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
