appointments in School or Nursery

If clinically necessary, your child may be offered a face to face appointment in their school, nursery or setting.   You do not need to attend but you are welcome to come along if you would like, as long as the school or setting are happy for you to be there.  Please let us know if your child is not in school for their appointment.

Sometimes therapists may wear PPE such as gloves, apron or a face mask.  If you would like the therapist to wear PPE, please let us know before the appointment.

To help prepare you and your child for the appointment, have a look at this picture to see us in our mask,  gloves and apron; A therapist in PPE

If we don’t answer, leave a message and we will call you back.  Alternatively, you can email us at barnsley.speechtherapy@swyt.nhs.uk providing your child’s name and the time and date of the appointment, and a contact number.   If you cancel 2 consecutive appointments or have a pattern of frequent cancellation you will not be offered another appointment and your child may be discharged.
