I appreciate the notion to look at where you want the patient to be when speech therapy is completed and acknowledging that steps of recovery differ for each person.

I think that as a clinician working with someone with aphasia, it is easy to get caught up in the therapy related to the structure of language and fail to recognize functional communication and impact on identity

Most of the recommendations were common sense and most clinicians know how to facilitate communication in a person with aphasia. More time spent on how to train family members would have been helpful.

Beautiful, beautiful concepts, well-presented. I can't say enough good things about the approaches that Dr. Santos presented here and I think any therapist who works with aphasia should attend the presentation! In a perfect world (or even a truly just world), therapists would have plenty of time/visits to achieve what otherwise could be goals that are much too lofty for various reasons - but primarily due to coverage limitations - in more severe cases.

This course is excellent. The speaker explained various forms of discourse and how they can be used in therapy as well why each form is important for stroke/aphasia rehabilitation. The speaker chose excellent examples to create an informative AND entertaining presentation. The references/citations were also quite useful for finding more in depth information about the different forms of discourse in rehabilitation. I look forward to listening to other presentations by Tricia Olea Santos, PhD, CCC-SLP.

Please find presenters to talk (not read a written presentation) in more detail about more complex topics. Most of the lectures I find on this website are so basic and do not increase my knowledge base in any way. The content also does not expand every year. I try to find more complex learning each year on adult neurogenic topics/dysphagia/cranial nerves/aphasia but there seems to be no improvement or new presenters. It is discouraging and I'm thinking of not renewing my membership again.
