Nesbitt Memorial Hospital, in con-
junction with InSpeech, Inc., initi-
ated a new inpatient and outpatient
program in Speech-Language Path-
ology in October.
The service is designed to provide
speech-language evaluation and
therapy for patients in the hospital
and at Nesbitt’s eight outpatient
satellite centers in the Wyoming
Valley. Patients who lose the ability
to communicate because of surgery,
disease or neurological impairments
will now receive special, individual
attention from trained speech-lan-
guage pathologists providing conti-
nuity of care. The program is also
available to children suffering from
difficulties with speech or language.
Speech-language pathologists will
visit with patients following a physi-
cian’s referral and administer a
speech language evaluation. These
standardized tests pinpoint which
areas of speech or language are
affected in an effort to prepare an
appropriate treatment plan.
The Speech-Language Pathology
Program will also address the prob-
lem of dysphagia - a term used to
describe a difficulty or discomfort
in swallowing. Dysphagia is often,
but not always, accompanied by a
communication disorder.
For more information on the care
provided by the Speech-Language
Pathology Program at Nesbitt
Memorial Hospital, contact John

Are you, going to a special
holiday party where you want to
look your absolute best? The
kind of party for which you just
might want to go a little over-
board? How about a party
where you might want to wear a
gold nail?
Nails Beautiful, located in the
Narrows Shopping Center in
Edwardsville, has gold nails for
you and Harry Richards, propri-
etor of the nail salon, says gold
nails are the “in” thing these
days.
“Gold Nails are for a special
event,” Richards said. “They
are an outstanding piece.” The
salon owner explained many
women will spring for just one
gold nail or for several nails,
depending on the occasion.

phases of nail work, including

Holy - Spirit, you who solve all
problems, who light all roads so
that | can obtain my goals, you who
give me the divine gift to forgive
and forget all evils against me and
that in-all instances of my life you
are with me. | want this short
prayer to thank you for all things
and to confirm once again that |
never want to be separated from
you and even in spite of all mate-
rial illusions, | wish to be with you
in eternal glory. Thank you for your
mercy toward me & mine. Say for 3
consecutive days. After 3 days the
favor requested will be granted
even if it may appear difficult. This
prayer must be published immedi-
ately after favor is granted without
mentioning the favor. Only the

bottom. Thank you, Holy Spirit.
