| Abstract | Speech therapy services in Hong Kong have changed dramatically in the past two decades. Further development is urgently required in three main areas: norms of speech and language development in Cantonese, descriptions of disordered communication in adults and children, and the development of screening and diagnostic speech and language instruments. General Practitioners and speech therapists can work in concert to develop a database on normal and disordered speech and language skills of Hong Kong population, to increase the likelihood of identification of disability and referral to an appropriate agency, and to develop assessment tools. |
