EMERGENCY

In an emergency, always call triple zero (000). It’s a free call from any phone, mobile or phone box.

For other urgent medical issues, go to an Emergency Department.

Our Emergency Departments are open 24 hours a day, seven days a week:

The speech pathology service provides inpatient and outpatient services for people with swallowing and communication difficulties including language, speech, voice and fluency.

We accept referrals from individuals, families, carers or health professionals, with the client’s consent.

Child and Family Speech Pathologists work in conjunction with nursing and allied health services to provide assessment and intervention services to children with communication and swallowing disorders, and their families.

All children with communication or feeding difficulties can access this service.

Treatments may range from parental/teacher advice and support, direct home programming, regular review or individual or group therapy programs.

There is a waiting list for assessments. Please phone Ballina Community Health to speak to the Speech Pathologist.
