Speech/Language Pathology

Meet Our Team

Speech/Language Pathologists work with children and adults with speech, language, swallowing and hearing problems. They work on developing a person's speaking, listening, reading, memory, writing or swallowing skills.

Faith Regional Speech/Language Pathology offers specialized and individualized programs. Each person's program is designed to meet his or her specific needs.

April Laskowski, MS/CCC-SLP

April graduated from the University of Nebraska at Kearney with a Bachelor’s degree in Communication Disorders. April worked in south central Nebraska, where she had the opportunity to work with the geriatric population. April soon realized that many of the individuals she came into contact with could benefit from services such as SLP. This led her to pursue her M.S. of Communication Disorders at the University of Nebraska - Kearney and later join Faith Regional Health Services.
