Together with @RareDementia & @dyscoveraphasia, @RCSLT is calling on @DHSCgovuk & @NHSEngland to urgently reinstate the only national specialist speech & language therapy service for people with primary progressive aphasia in England & Wales: https://t.co/cJePMW4gDR @RCSLTpolicy

Calling all #SpeechandLanguageTherapists working with adults with #EatingDrinkingandSwallowing needs - what are your top 5 interventions? I’m writing a textbook and want to make sure I cover those that are most clinically relevant - thank you!

‘When the sunlight strikes raindrops in the air, they act like a prism and form a rainbow. The rainbow is a division of white light into many beautiful colors. These take the shape of a long round arch, with its path high above….’ #SLT #voice #coronation

There is evidence that denture wearing during sleep increases the risk of aspiration pneumonia, a potentially life-threatening condition in the very elderly 🦷

Happy birthday to Broadway superstar and stroke survivor, Tim Curry.

Stroke can happen to anyone at any age and Tim is proof that there is more to life after a stroke. He continues to perform as a voice actor and singer and remains devoted to his loyal fans!

15/#365papers - I had a patient today who had been kept NBM over the weekend awaiting SLT as he was being treated for aspiration pneumonia. When I told the Dr he did not have an obvious oropharyngeal dysphagia, they seemed surprised. Lets discuss… (1/8)

I hateeee being called ‘the SALT.’ Each to their own, but ‘SLT’ is better, ‘Izzie’ is best 😂 ❌🧂

[Kate SLT @katemordey]

I simply do not comment on adequacy of hyolaryngeal movement and the only reason I palpate is to feel for swallow trigger if I can’t see it (but where possible I avoid touching someone’s neck). Do you?
