Blair Therapies in the Schools:

Our Roots Are With School Systems:
At Blair Therapies, we got our start by providing Speech Language Pathology Services to area school districts to meet the specific needs of that specific school.  We offer services such as fulfilling full and part-time vacancies in the most efficient and cost effective means possible for Physical, Occupational and Speech Therapies!  Blair Therapies is owned and operated by therapists with extensive school experience, and we offer staffing solutions to schools in need. We are experienced and efficient at finding the right fit for your therapy positions – and our focus is helping students reach their full potential!
Schools are increasingly expected to do more with less. Compliance demands and talent shortages make it tough to staff your schools with quality therapists.

We will complete all necessary services as it relates to your Speech/Language Support, OT, or PT needs.  If you would like to speak more to us about the services we offer, to obtain contact information and reference from a school district we serve, to review a Blair Therapies draft agreement, or to discuss our invoicing procedures, contact us today!

Screenings

 Speech Therapy/OT or PT screenings briefly assess whether a full evaluation is needed. These sessions typically last 15-30 minutes. Screenings include brief summary of results and recommendations for next steps.

We offer school based therapy screenings both while we cover vacancies and as a stand-alone service.  We are happy to schedule screenings with your public or private school to assist in screening students who may be at risk for speech and language impairment to determine the need for a comprehensive evaluation

Conferences/IEP Meetings

Blair Therapies happily attends and covers parent teacher conferences if needed to discuss the students we serve within your school district.  Additionally, we are available by phone for conferencing with the IEP team for conferencing.  We additionally attend IEP meetings as the case manager or as a Related Service as well as develop necessary IEP documents.

Therapy

Blair Therapies provides direct treatment to students with IEPs as well as RtII services.  Frequency and duration will be followed as indicated in the specially designed instruction section of the student's IEP.  As a part of our therapy services, we contact and educate the family as well as the IEP team on the student's needs as it relates to his/her needs.
