Our team at @aphasiacre is developing solutions to tackle this inequity in access to care for people with #aphasia from cultural and linguistic differences @ChelseaLarkman @KathleenMellahn @SamSiySP

Lots to think about after hearing from @volkmer_anna about intensive conversation camps for people with progressive aphasia. Loved the suggestion from one participant that maybe CPT should be mandatory for all people with PPA. #BASConf24

This represents several years’ work led by @rose_mirandaros @cats_aphasia funded by Tavistock Trust for Aphasia. Included therapy profiles were authored by those who developed & tested the therapies. Dozens of reviewers & user testers ensured the accuracy & usability of the tool.
aphasiatherapyfinder.com/ 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!

Agree. Let’s get this ⬇️ FREE resource to every Australian new to #aphasia. Every hospital speech pathologist in Australia should have copies of this vital introduction to aphasia. Every Australian stroke unit should have stacks ready to hand out. Thank you @strokefdn – at Sunshine Coast, Queensland
The Aphasia Handbook is out (by @strokefdn and @AusAphasiaAssoc) and it's wonderfully comprehensive and accessible 🥇 Let's make sure every Australian leaving hospital with #aphasia gets a copy! 📘strokefoundation.org.au/medi… 📮store.strokefoundation.org.a…

Thanks for having me @AphasiaMentors !! It was lovely to meet everyone. I so enjoyed all our conversations 😊 My visit has got me thinking about how I can get aphasia groups going when I'm back home.
Great to have @ChelseaLarkman visit both the Aphasia Mentors & Aphasia Partners sessions today! Inspiring us to dream big, putting a spotlight on what can be possible through collaborative practice. An exciting start to the term!
