#MySLTDay a very mixed one! #Swallowing ax on the ward followed by #videofluoroscopy followed by 2 x community language patients with #aphasia. Nice to have such a varied role! #adultslt #stroke #dysphagia

[RCSLT 💙 @RCSLT]

Do you know what #dysphagia is? It’s the medical term for swallowing, eating and drinking difficulties. We’ll be raising awareness about it on 18 March for Swallowing Awareness Day. Find out how to get involved here: https://t.co/8zx5Ip7u6M

@SpeechieAtDMU My #slt2b department are currently advertising a PhD on this subject @BCAphasia tweeted about it the other day so may be a useful contact! Good luck with your dissertation!

[AHPDementia @AhpDementia]

Confused speech & behaviour should not be seen as meaningless in dementia - it may be an attempt to make sense of the environment or communicate an unmet need. Reflective listening, warmth & acceptance may uncover hidden meanings over time #WithSLTuCan

[EB @EB_SLT]

Feeling nostalgic travelling to London to see my #speechies. A few months ago this was to travel for lectures as a #slt2b now I'm meeting for brunch, all of us #SLT!!! #MySLTDay

Stroboscopy of the vocal cords on the left, vodeofluoroscopy on the right. SLT is awesome right!? #slpeeps #wespeechies @RCSLTTracheCEN @RCSLT #vocalcords #videofluoroscopy
