Addressing the Social Needs of People With Communication Disorders
Format(s): Journal (Online)
A communication disorder can have a profound impact on many aspects of a person’s life, including school, work, leisure, and social relationships. Sudden changes, such as those that occur after stroke or other illness, as well as more gradual difficulties, such as those associated with age-related hearing loss, can negatively affect interactions with other people and engagement in daily activities. This journal self-study explores how social networks and feelings of isolation or loneliness may change when a person experiences communication difficulties. It also looks at how well SLPs and audiologists recognize and address the social and emotional needs of their patients during treatment. Clinicians working with older adults with speech, language, and hearing disorders will come away with a better understanding of the impact of social and familial support on patient success and how to better address these needs when planning treatment.
Evidence-Based Practice Tools for Practicing Clinicians
Format(s): On Demand Webinar
What does evidence-based practice (EBP) mean to a speech-language pathologist or audiologist? This webinar, provided by ASHA’s National Center for Evidence-Based Practice in Communication Disorders (N-CEP), will guide the clinician in the first steps of implementing evidence-based practice into the clinical decision-making process. The course will review the definition and components of EBP, describe the steps of the EBP process, and provide timesaving tools and clinical scenarios to help integrate evidence into a clinician’s clinical practice.
