Welcome to Brookfield Therapy Clinic, which is housed within the School of Clinical Therapies. We provide therapeutic intervention in Speech & Language Therapy, Occupational Therapy and Audiology.
The clinic has a joint aim: to provide effective therapy by HSE Therapists for children, adults and families who attend the services, and to provide education for the students being educated in the three disciplines through additional student clinics.
Occupational Therapy Clinic
The clinic is a base for the HSE North Lee catchment area Early Intervention Community Occupational Therapy (OT) service for children under the age of 6.
Occupational Therapy students learn a broad range of knowledge and skills during their 4-year programme and the clinic provides a range of experiences for students, in particular to make the learning real. As a task-based learning programme, learning on the job, doing tasks related to practising occupational therapy ensures students’ learning is as effective as possible. Students attend the clinic in an observational and reflective capacity.
Referral to the clinic is through the HSE North Lee Community OT services.
Please contact the HSE on Tel: 021 4927850 or Clinic Reception on 021 4901579 for relevant referral forms

Speech & Language Therapy Clinic:
The clinic provides Speech and Language Therapy (SLT) to children living in the catchment area of UCC.
To become a qualified SLT, the students must learn a great deal of specialised knowledge during an intense four-year degree programme. The students must also learn therapeutic skills, so that they can help their clients effectively.
At our clinic, student clinics are organised during the two semesters, where therapy is provided by Speech and Language Therapists-in-training under the supervision of Senior Speech and Language Therapists and staff from the Department of Speech and Hearing.
Referral to the clinic is through the HSE South Lee SLT services.
Please contact the HSE on Tel: 021 4927801 or Clinic Reception on 021 4901579 for relevant referral forms
