✨Job fairy ✨My beloved Senior SLT post in acute stroke is now open for applications (temp post) on St James Hospital website, a wonderful job with an even more wonderful team 💕 https://t.co/syYtxZHaDc

https://t.co/8CKydQ6LkI This may be one of the best resources I've ever come across for #aphasia. This will save so much time as a clinician. It not only summarises the current level of evidence but includes tx protocols, links to materials and training vidoes #gamechanger ⬇️

[Sam Harvey, PhD @SRHarvey_]

https://t.co/cPXjLPJwsd contains evidence summaries, resources, how-to videos and more for 25 evidence-based #aphasia treatments.

Registration is free.

An essential item in the aphasia clinician's toolkit.

Please share far and wide!

So proud to announce that I'm finally a "published" author! Read our paper on the reliability trials of the MDT stroke TOMs- a holistic stroke outcome measure I developed with Professor Pam Enderby (yes, I'm incredibly lucky!)

Data collection now completed to determine oropharyngeal dysphagia post oesophagectomy: a longitudinal study. Thank you to all the participants for making this research possible @stjamesdublin @ClinSpeechTCD @JulieRegan_ @AnnaGillman @ISDE_net #stjames_SLT

[Kelly Doherty @KellyDohertySLT]

If I'd experience in H&N, I'd be applying to work with this amazing team. I'm honestly in awe of all that the #SJH #SLT H&N team manage to do for their patients and how they are constantly showcasing, nationally, the vital role SLTs play with this client group. Apply below⬇️.

[--Deirdre-- @deeleav]

An exciting opportunity for a senior SLT with H&N experience to work at the National H&N Cancer Centre and with Ireland's largest laryngectomy caseload 👀 @stjamesdublin @CancerInstIRE @CaoimheMulgrew @SorchaMcManus

Civilians in #Gaza are being starved and killed, and we are prevented from helping them.

This is Gaza today, even after 7 months of horrors.

It's not even a war. There are no two Armies. It's children against the world's most sophisticated evil army using illegal weapons of warfare. #EyesOnRafah

Today, the #ESD #MDT at SJH commenced our g-apframework training. A FREE, evidence based resource designed with #PWA to help with #goal setting. https://t.co/NX192Mozjk

[Kelly Doherty @KellyDohertySLT]

Genuinely one of the best training sessions I've ever attended. Thank you so much @AcquireSLT. So informative. Looking forward to using all that you discussed today with my clients and sharing with the wider SLT/MDT

[Dr Sharon Adjei-Nicol @AcquireSLT]

Thanks to @aphasia_CEN for inviting me to deliver a half day session on working with #severeaphasia and all the therapists who attended today. Great turnout and discussion

[Elizabeth Hepper @echepperslt]

Delighted to share this scoping review, highlighting the psychosocial impct of being 'nil by mouth' and the lack of outcome measures suitable has been published today and available Open Access.

Now onto the challenge of addressing the gaps..

[Dr Abi Roper @abracabadger]

Please watch and share! Beautiful videos made with (and at the behest of) people with #aphasia, sharing what we can all do to support the well-being of people with aphasia and their loved ones. Full details in Sarah's thread.
