North Shore Health and Rehabilitation offers advanced speech-language pathology services in Loveland, assisting patients in regaining their communication abilities and promoting safe swallowing after stroke, neurological conditions, surgery, and other health challenges.
ADVANCED SWALLOWING REHABILITATION
We provide comprehensive swallowing assessments and dysphagia treatment using evidence-based techniques. Our team coordinates with physicians for instrumental studies, recommends appropriate diet textures, and teaches safe swallowing strategies. Family members receive education on feeding safety and recognize signs of swallowing difficulties.
VITAL-STIM ELECTRICAL STIMULATION THERAPY
North Shore offers FDA-approved Vital-Stim therapy, a revolutionary treatment that uses gentle electrical stimulation to strengthen swallowing muscles. This advanced technology accelerates recovery for patients with dysphagia and significantly reduces aspiration risk. Combined with traditional exercises, Vital-Stim typically produces faster recovery times than conventional therapy alone.
LSVT FOR PARKINSON'S DISEASE
Our Lee Silverman Voice Treatment (LSVT) program is specifically designed for Parkinson's patients. This intensive, evidence-based program focuses on increasing vocal loudness and clarity, improving speech intelligibility, and communication confidence. LSVT provides proven long-term results and includes family training for ongoing support.
COGNITIVE-LINGUISTIC TREATMENT
Focuses on improving thinking skills that support effective communication, such as attention, memory, problem-solving, and executive functioning. This type of therapy is often beneficial for individuals with dementia or those who have experienced brain injuries, strokes, or neurological conditions that impact their ability to process and express language. Through personalized exercises and strategies, cognitive-linguistic therapy helps patients strengthen their ability to understand, organize, recall, and convey information more clearly and confidently in daily life.
NORTHERN COLORADO HOSPITALISTS PARTNERSHIP
Our collaboration ensures consistent care from physicians who know our facility, seamless nurse-doctor communication, faster decisions, fewer readmissions, and peace of mind for families.
Conditions We Treat
We provide expert care for stroke, aphasia recovery, Parkinson's disease communication challenges, traumatic brain injury effects, multiple sclerosis, ALS communication support, and post-surgical swallowing difficulties. Our services also address voice disorders, cognitive changes from illness, dementia-related communication changes, and post-hospital recovery needs, including prolonged intubation effects.
TESTIMONIALS
Client Success Stories:
My mother used to be a resident there, after switching nursing homes I was nervous to send her anywhere, however I’m extremely happy with the way she was being treated there, especially in the actives department. She was more outgoing than ever before and I had visibly seen a change in her behavior and personality. The women in that department have no idea how much they have changed my mother’s experience. I highly recommend this place to absolutely everyone. The activities kept my mother happy and busy, this was such an important time in her life and I couldn’t be more satisfied!!

Mom spent a month here after breaking her hip. With her severe cognitive impairment and recovering from anesthesia mom needed two people to help her get out of bed (she weighs 100 lbs). Today she is able to walk down a long corridor using as walker and is moving back to her memory care facility. She has a nice private room here and received therapy twice a day five days per week. The staff all knew her name and gave her s such loving care. The food was not gourmet but it was fine. The administrator was so helpful with insurance as well. We were very pleased with this whole experience.

North Shore Health and Rehab has exceptional staff in every department. The nursing team and CNAs provide compassionate care, even saving my life during COVID. Activities fill our days with recreation and spiritual growth, while dietary staff serve delicious meals with smiles. Laundry and housekeeping keep us fresh and clean, and maintenance quickly fixes what is needed. Physical therapy helps us regain strength, social services solve problems, and transportation takes us out. The resident council builds community, and administration ensures everything runs smoothly. This place is more than healthcare, it has truly become home.
