PROMPT

"Prompts for Restructuring Oral-Muscular Phonetic Targets" (PROMPTs) is a technique that uses tactile-kinesthetic articulatory cues on the jaw, face and under the chin, to develop or restructure speech production. The PROMPT-trained speech-language pathologist helps to manually guide articulators to help the child produce specific sounds or words. The clinician uses his/her hands to cue and stimulate articulatory movement, and at the same time helps the child eliminate any unnecessary movements.

PROMPT addresses cognitive, social, pragmatic, behavioral, sensory-motor and physical domains, using the client's strengths to maximize his/her potential for communication. The PROMPT-trained clinician examines each individual to determine how to develop improved motor control, cognitive skills and social interactions. The ultimate goal of PROMPT therapy is improved functional, interactive, verbal communication.
