Aphasia and Right Hemisphere Disorder

Understanding Aphasia and Right Hemisphere Disorder
Aphasia is a communication disorder that results from damage to the parts of the brain responsible for language. It can affect speaking, understanding, reading, and writing. On the other hand, Right Hemisphere Disorder can lead to difficulties in communication that do not stem from language issues but rather from problems with the right side of the brain, impacting social skills, emotional recognition, and the ability to process visual information. At SMART Hearing & Child Development Center (SHCDC) in Madinaguda, we offer specialized therapy and rehabilitation programs for individuals with Aphasia and Right Hemisphere Disorder to enhance their communication abilities and overall quality of life.
