#SALT community: as we are all embracing the digital age, are there any recommendations of adult communication apps ( #apraxia, #dysarthria, #aphasia, #voice) that you would recommend/ patients have really benefitted from and enjoyed using?


Today I started the next step in my journey to become a #SLT 😁 I will be working as a band 4 paediatric #SLTA until I am fully qualified & registered, then transferred into my band 5 role! 🎉 #slt2b #speechtherapy #speechandlanguagetherapy #speechandlanguage #speechies

#Repost How is eye-contact perceived in your culture? Research shows eye-contact perception differs across cultures (Uono & Hietanan, 2015). Thus, SLPs should differentiate if the use of our student/patient’s eye-contact is due to their culture or a true communication disorder.

Why are SLTs so underrepresented? 😕

We had a big question about whether we think mouth care should be addressed at undergraduate level for all health & social care students - the answer is YES! We truly believe that mouth care is important for everyone & we all should be addressing this. Education is key to change.
