Winning the Better Conversation Book is the best boost to the beginning of my PhD journey!
So pleased to attend the @BCconf2023 with so many interesting topics and amazing speakers.
I HAVE to say that this was a book that I wanted in my personal library for a very long time.
#BCconf2023 so that's a wrap! Thank you so much to all our contributors, our sponsor @JandRPress and our amazing #slt2b helpers Rita, Rosie, Ericka, Sylfiana & Stephanie @BCconf2023
"We all have responsibility" Considerations for worldwide use of CPT- adjust language, concepts,carer burden and roles. Adapt to the sociological- cultural context with relevant resources. Consider more hybrid training approaches to increase accessibility. @BCconf2023@BCAphasia
We all have a responsibility to address healthcare inequalities for people from underserved communities! A key message from @AnalisaMPais We agree!! What a wonderful talk at this afternoons @BCconf2023 If you are reading this tweet- what are you doing??? See suggestions below!
Lots of different adaptation examples from different countries and contexts are explored by @AnalisaMPais who flags that timelines for adaptation may also be different! #BCconf2023
This afternoon the conference has focused on adapting communication partner training to the majority world context - @AnalisaMPais explains how she undertook this work in India. Lots of wonderful work leveraging cultural resources to help @BCconf2023#BCconf2023@BCAphasia
I am tickled pink 🥰
In 1998 I chose a tool to measure social networks in ppl w aphasia for my PhD & published about it in 2003 & 2006, and share/teach it with students and SLTs.
Sitting here in #BCconf23 and carers & therapists use this tool!

Setting, age group, diagnosis, severity, culture, ethnicity - and a lot more to consider when providing CPT. All starts with getting to know who you're working with. Building relationships. SLT panel on diversity & inclusion at #BCconf2023
Take away points from panel discussion @BCconf2023 1) Start from the beginning & roll with it
2) everyone’s CPT journey is unique
3) take time to get to know individuals & build collaborative relationships @steven_bloch@simongrobler@AcquireSLT
#BCconf2023 fantastic summing up from our panel on diversity and inclusion issues in CPT - Roll with it. Everyone is on their own journey. Relationship building is vital. Take time to get to know people. @BCconf2023
Attending @BCconf2023 to support everyday conversation skills of people living with communication difficulties and needs, and their family communication partners. #bcconf2023 @CTMUHBspeech @ctmwellbeinghub
Feeling so inspired by @AnalisaMPais and her work and so honored to have her in my Thesis Committee.
I hope some time soon I could include CPT practice information from Chile! Let’s go for that 💪🏻
