SLPs can help their patients by helping them set up accessibility features on their devices. #EauCLamarAphasia

[BHRUT_SLT @BHRUT_SLT]

❓Did you know that iPads & iPhones 📱 have built-in functions that can help patients with #aphasia ❓You can find them in Settings > General > Accessibility #slp2b
#SLPeeps For eg. Sometimes just ⬆️ INCREASING FONT SIZE can make the BIGGEST difference 💡💡

It's important to involve people with aphasia in creating aphasia friendly environments. #EauCLamarAphasia

We are thrilled to be recognised as part of this brilliant team on global accessibility awareness day. #aphasia #GAAD #GAAD2019

[Amplifood @Amplifood1]

Using features like Zoom's closed captioning can help make live events more accessible for people with aphasia. However, it's important to note that this feature is not perfect! #EauCLamarAphasia

[North East Trust for Aphasia @NETA_Aphasia]

First time using zooms closed caption feature today in NETA art group. It worked well. It’s a good way of writing key words/ short sentences to support understanding in conversations. Find it in zoo’s too bar #aphasia #accessibility

Sometimes stroke recovery doesn't go as planned or hoped. This emphasizes the need for clear, functional, achievable goals. Even so it's hard to predict exactly how recovery will go.

[Adult SLT @LNWH_SLT]

Focus group on our stroke unit found patients feel demoralised when goals not achieved #aphasiatherapy #goalcentred

[Amplifood @Amplifood1]

#eauclamaraphasia Music can support aphasia recovery.

[Kaitlyn Cofty @kaitlyn_cofty]

SLPs should continue to provide therapy to people with aphasia for as long as possible despite the popular myth that people with aphasia "plateau" around a year post-stroke. Improvements can still be made in therapy, even if it takes more effort. #EauCLamarAphasia

[Amplifood @Amplifood1]

#aphasiatherapy can involve learning total communication strategies. Love how the therapist included pictures to support comprehension. #eauclamaraphasia @mallorycrowe

[Amplifood @Amplifood1]

What does #aphasiatherapy look like? EVA Park is a virtual therapy room designed for people with aphasia. It includes many different settings for functional communication. How cool is this? #eauclamaraphasia @mallorycrowe

[EVA Park @EVAphasia]

#Aphasiatherapy can be supported with apps. @TactusTherapy makes apps to support those with aphasia. #eauclamaraphasia @mallorycrowe

[ORCHA @OrchaHealth]

Alice's app of the week is Naming Therapy by @TactusTherapy.

"The app helps people with #aphasia to develop naming and descriptive skills through interactive games. I particularly like that it helps the user to really engage by selecting their favourite topics."

"Verbal communication, speaking and interpreting, is so vital to being human that many assume when one loses that ability one loses his mind. His mind is still churning, probably working overtime. It's his brain that's been bashed." - Helen Harlan Wulf
