I loved this course! It was so meaningful to hear from people actually living with aphasia. I will definitely be more mindful about how I serve these patients in the acute care setting after participating in this course. Hearing what was helpful and the importance of offering a safe space will add to my practice. Thanks to you all for being vulnerable and allowing us to learn from your experiences!

It was very helpful to hear the perspectives of our patients and learn what was most helpful for them. The course reinforced the things that are important beyond just the basics of how to do aphasia therapy that we learned in grad school but rather how to be a better therapist, how to connect with the patient beyond tests, exercises and worksheets. Very positive and uplifting course, I loved it.

The sharing of the experiences of stroke patients made this class so powerful! I am an SLP who has not worked as an SLP for the last 25 years, but as a homeschool mom I am now caring for my mom 24/7 who suffered a massive right intracranial bleed. After surgery to save her life, she did eventually make progress, but with the onset of grand-mal seizures, she lost much ground. This class gave me hope to start trying to help her communicate again!

While taking this course, I realized that when I had a stroke (carotid artery dissection and blood clot in brain) NO ONE mentioned "Aphasia" while I was inpatient. I was sent home to "Die" as the physician spoke at my bedside to my ex-husband that they wanted him to stay at my home so none of my 4 children would "find me". Being an SLP, I knew internally that I had receptive and expressive aphasia along with significant memory/problem-solving/reasoning difficulties. Course had GREAT info!

Real stories from real people with aphasia!
by

It's always best to connect with the client to understand who they are, their needs (not the needs of the rehab staff/administration), how best to help them achieve and move forward in their rehabilitation. We always need to remember that clients don't know what we know--we cannot assume what knowledge, experience, education they've had. So we need to find out. And their family members are going through it too! The course addressed these and helped SLPs to know to remember the client's needs!
