Default Re: On the Tip of My Tongue: Living With Aphasia
Thanks, Vickie.

Although this thread is over a year old, it is a subject that I've been trying to understand better. I've been assigned a pt with expressive aphasia at an ECF and I'm trying to find out the best way that I can communicate with her.

As an educator, is there a way that I can communicate with her on a more therapeutic level? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
