Sharing this with the dysphagia clinicians in my trust. Not too long, so a manageable read on a busy work day. A MUST READ for dysphagia clinicians https://t.co/334KJ9h27J
Please see our article discussing Prescribing for people with a learning disability - Adams - 2023 - Prescriber - Wiley Online Library https://t.co/ocdvDgrrOC @PrescriberUK Thank you to my co author Barry Jubraj
October is AAC awareness month so I thought I'd re-share the four Ps model we use to describe the different types of AAC at @barnsleyAT.
I prefer these terms to 'low tech' and 'high tech' as they give equal value to all forms of AAC, which people might use alone or together.
Exciting opportunity to join our SLT team in a communication specialist role. Would love to chat to anyone interested. @HPFT_NHS@SallyJudges

Really important read. The presence of aspiration alone does not lead to aspiration pneumonia and we must look at the 'bigger picture'.
.@DHSCgovuk has confirmed with us that @the_clearmask is the supplier whose mask has been approved for use in the NHS & social care. The DHSC is deciding the best route to supply these. Distribution is hoped later this month. Interested SLTs can find out more via @the_clearmask
