This postgraduate diploma will allow you to obtain a  certificate endorsed by TECH - Technological University ”

There is a wide professional demand for training to acquire the necessary skills to enable the speech-language pathologist and related professions to provide a comprehensive educational, health and clinical response.  Both nurses and doctors will benefit from training actions that integrate the vision of clinical speech therapy and the needs of an educational response that demands speech therapy also in the school environment, without forgetting the clinical and health environment. 

In this case, the professional speech therapist will focus their studies on neurorehabilitation and early care, in order to specialize in treatments that will facilitate the recovery of damage to the nervous system that affect the speech of their patients. 

Thus, for example, orofacial myofunctional therapy (OMT) tries to create new neuromuscular patterns that improve these functions and also the articulation of speech and the patient's own aesthetics. The basis of the work is the laryngeal, oral, maxillary and facial system, intervening in various fields such as malformations, disabilities, congenital or acquired brain damage, neurodevelopmental disorders, etc., without forgetting the relationship between TOM, speech therapy and orthodontics, as well as its impact and involvement in neurodevelopment and physical-motor level.  
 
This postgraduate diploma in Logopedic Neurorehabilitation and Early Intervention for Nurses is a response to the demand for continued specialization of health agents and is aimed primarily at nursing professionals. With this training course, the nurse will acquire skills to manage speech disorders or disorders of a logopedic nature in different work contexts.
