For this weeks episode we're taking a return trip to one of our favorite conversations from the last year. Renee is joined by Dr. Treasyri Williams Wood, SLPD, CCC-SLP/L, to discuss the many facets of aphasia. Whether SLPs are involved in the rehabilitation of the acute phase of the chronic phase of aphasia, what does our EBP treatment look like? What techniques and strategies are we utilizing across the continuum of care? How can we implement or even create a community-based support group to address the needs of our patients with aphasia? Join Renee and Treasyri as they explore the expansive world of aphasia care.
