Any of my #SLT friends going to #naplic2023 this year?

[Heather Rigby @Hathir511]

@ClinAcSLT Zoom crashed on me half way through and I couldn't get back on. Did you get to my question about supporting SLT's with IRAS applications?

[Heather Rigby @Hathir511]

It was my pleasure to present to @CygnetOT study day yesterday #SLT #Camhs

[Katie the OT @KatietheOT]

Yesterday we held our @CygnetOT Personality Disorder, Eating Disorder and CAMHS service line meeting. We had a study day on meeting the needs of individuals with ASD within our services. Great presentations from psychology, OT and SLT

@JGSLT Well done Jack

I can not describe the satisfaction of submitting my IRAS application. Let's hope it goes well 🤞 #SLTlife #SLTresearch

[Heather Rigby @Hathir511]

@SLTclare_ Yes and also when I get a text from LFT's too

[Heather Rigby @Hathir511]

@euancrobertson I literally just looked up to see the time and it's 2.22pm!

Are you a Speech and Langauhe Therapist #SLT who has worked with 1 or more adults with a history of #braininjury, but NOT as part of a brain injury specialist service? If so I'd love to interview you for my dissertation.  Please DM/comment below and I'll send you more info.

It's #ChildrensMentalHealthWeek As an SLT it's important we raise awareness that children within services such as #CAMHS are 5 times more likely to have #SLCN

[RCSLTpolicy @RCSLTpolicy]

Children with #mentalhealth needs are 5 times more likely to have #SLCN than their peers

Everyone who works with these young people needs to understand this and know how they can support them

Mind Your Words - new free e-learning from @RCSLT - can help

I support schools, and hearing about all the children waiting for 3+years for SLT support/therapy/assessment is absolutely heartbreaking. That’s not a just a poor service - that’s a pandemic in itself. Rights are not being met. We’ll see implications of this for years #SLCN #SLT
