Presentation Transcript

  1. What happens when a person has Down syndrome?

  2. A person with Down syndrome has an extra copy of chromosome 21, which can cause physical and intellectual developmental delays. This genetic disorder affects about one out of every 700 babies born in the United States, making it the most common chromosomal disorder.

  3. Individuals with Down syndrome may face a variety of physical and cognitive challenges throughout their lives, including delayed speech and language development. Fortunately, speech therapy can assist people with Down syndrome in improving their communication skills and reaching their full potential.

  4. If you're looking for the best speech therapy in Sharjah or a Speech Therapy Center in UAE, it's critical to find a provider who has worked with people who have Down syndrome. A skilled speech therapist can create a treatment plan that is tailored to the individual's specific needs and goals.

  5. It's important to remember that speech therapy isn't a one-size-fits-all solution, and that progress will vary depending on the individual's unique challenges and strengths. Individuals with Down syndrome, on the other hand, can significantly improve their communication abilities and overall quality of life with consistent and targeted therapy.

  6. Individuals with Down syndrome may benefit from other types of therapy, such as occupational and physical therapy, in addition to speech therapy. Fine motor skills, gross motor skills, and overall physical functioning can all benefit from these therapies.
