Today I facilitated a discussion b/t a junior Dr and a pt w/ aphasia, around capacity + consent for a urology procedure. He demonstrated capacity + consent through us using closed q's + visuals 🙌 afterwards the Dr said "that was amazing, I've not seen what the SLTs do before" 😍

@ginni_bb @OxoSLT @e_poyner1 @HannahSLT19 @Ampcare @TRichardSLP We are looking at perhaps being a site for the PhEAST trial at the moment, but there are some barriers.

[Naomi Carter @NaomiCarter_SLT]

SLTs... what are the first steps in trialling #nmes for the first time in the acute setting? #stroke #swallowrehab #mySLTday @HannahSLT19 @e_poyner1 (I had seen you tweet about this before!)

[Naomi Carter @NaomiCarter_SLT]

@ginni_bb @e_poyner1 @HannahSLT19 @Ampcare @TRichardSLP Thanks so much for all this Ginni! I will do some more research looking at those pointers and then may get back in touch with you if that's okay

[Naomi Carter @NaomiCarter_SLT]

@HannahSLT19 @e_poyner1 @Ampcare Thanks!

[Naomi Carter @NaomiCarter_SLT]

@e_poyner1 @HannahSLT19 @ginni_bb No not at all, what you've said is really helpful! Thanks :)

[Naomi Carter @NaomiCarter_SLT]

@e_poyner1 @HannahSLT19 Thank you! I'm thinking even the steps before that
.. from whom to source equipment, training, funding etc. Did you work with @Ampcare ? We have never used it in our setting before and don't have any equipment etc! Any tips or pointers welcome 😊

[Royal Hospital for Neuro-disability @RHNuk]

A recent project introduced by SLTs and OTs as part of a pilot scheme gives patients and residents the opportunity to work at RHN's reception desk, helping them rebuild confidence and skills that may have been impacted following a brain injury.

@SltLane What training did you do? 😊 I'm always on the look out for formal dysphagia courses!

Well worth braving the weather today to attend @ClacEast Clinical Academic careers showcase. Inspiring! Excited to explore potential future avenues looking at combining research and clinical practice. Thank you to all the organisers and contributors #CAShowcase

@DaisyRichens I have heard "paper-based" and "power-based" - I enjoy the alliteration 🤓

[Naomi Carter @NaomiCarter_SLT]

@DaisyRichens This is great! What programme did you use to create the infographic? It's beautiful!

[Naomi Carter @NaomiCarter_SLT]

@DaisyRichens 😭😭 I'm surprised there are so few mentions of SLT! Representative of a lack of representation of SLTs on ITUs/CCUs?

[Naomi Carter @NaomiCarter_SLT]

@RNSuperHero Also, it's a really hard situation. Well done for trying. Thank you for caring. That will make a difference in itself!
