Hello!
This is Danyl Beilhartz and Holly Rutherford.
We are second year speech-language pathology students at UBC.
We are now two weeks into our student externship with the Aphasia Mentoring Program and are really excited to learn as much as we can from the members about aphasia and living with aphasia.
We have a few initial questions we would like ask:
- What advice would you give to healthcare professionals for when they explain aphasia to someone for the first time?
- What was the most helpful thing your speech-language pathologist did?
- What would you like people without aphasia to know about living with aphasia?
- During your assessments were you ever asked about your own participation or how you felt about your communication?
- Do you have a favourite app that helps with communication?
- What is it?
- Why do you like this app?
