I use gesture therapy in the acute stroke unit, do you?

@maddyhaines.bsky.social and @laurarees.bsky.social would like to hear from you if you are an SLT, SLTA or rehab assistant

I enjoyed sharing the results of my study into the support needs of carers of people with jargon aphasia. Carers felt that jargon aphasia is very different to other types of stroke

Pleased to present my poster at the inspiring #NAC2025. Lovely to meet people working in this space, with SLTs echoing the challenges working with Wernicke’s aphasia reported by participants. @sarahnorthcott.bsky.social
