FAQ

  • What is speech therapy?

    Speech therapy treats speech, language, and swallowing difficulties that can result from conditions (e.g stroke). The goal is to enhance overall communication abilities, promote confidence in speech/swallowing, and improve quality of life.

  • Can speech therapy be provided in the home, or is a clinic/hospital a better option?

    Speech therapy can be provided at home, heightening the level of comfort, hygiene, safety and sense of familiarity for your loved one. There are many treatments and exercises that do not require such specialised equipment, and can be done anywhere. Our speech therapists provide home-based techniques that are practical and easy for patients to apply in their daily life.  In-home speech therapy ensures the patient will get one-on-one attention and close supervision.

  • How much does in-home speech therapy cost?

    The cost of speech therapy services will depend on the rank of care professional. Services are charged at an hourly rate and can include additional charges for night shifts. If you would like a personal quotation, please contact us for more pricing information. 

  • How does Evercare find the right speech therapist for me and my family?

    At Evercare, you can be sure that every member of your team – whether nurse, physiotherapist, speech therapist, occupational therapist or wound care specialist – is highly trained, trustworthy and professional. Every member of your team has been interviewed and screened. They offer a level of skill that comes only with experience, and compassion that comes with true caring. 

  • How can I be sure the person coming into my home is trustworthy?

    Simple. Our clients are special to us; we demand our cargivers are special too. All Evercare professionals are personally vetted and tested. We have a lot of contact with each cargiver to ensure they are not only qualified, but they are personable and trustworthy enough to care for our clients. For extra confidence, we give you the opportunity to view caregiver profiles before the start of your service. In-person interviews are also available upon request. 


    With a track record of trusted service and over 100,000 hours of nursing care, we are confident that all our care professionals coming into your house are trustworthy.

  • Do I get the same speech therapist every time?

    You can request to have the same speech therapist every time.

  • What if I want to change my care professional?

    Give us a call at 3905 4000 or WhatsApp your Evercare Care Manager. We can discuss what aspects of the care you want changed so we can provide you with a more appropriate match.

  • Do I need a doctor's referral letter?

    A doctor's referral letter is not required. Clients using speech therapy services for the first time are only required to undergo an intial assessment with Evercare.
