Tips for communicating when wearing a face covering. Pay attention, give time and you'll do just fine. Here are some things I've learnt from others.

Truth... 👏🤣

Can't believe there has been 17 weeks of the 'Come Together' communication cafe! It's been great to be involved in this cafe from the beginning and meet everyone along the way. See you all in September! Sam Bowman Elisabeth Hibbard

By the way how to be a good speechie 1. Make your time count, people are hanging hope on every session 2. Make it tailored to personality and interests, don’t use generic tasks 3. Let people take the lead in their therapy and plenty to do between sessions.

SO excited that I am now part of this profession. What a great read 🤩 this sounds like my idea of a perfect role! 🤞 aptus-slt.com/post/a-day-in-…

Today is #RoaldDahlDay!📚 💡Interesting fact - The unique language in his famous book, The BFG, was inspired by the experience of his wife, Patricia Neal's #Aphasia - a communication condition that affects many stroke survivors. #RoaldDahlStoryday

Just recommended SLTea Time to a psychology student on placement at the moment. She witnessed a microaggression that occurred with her NHS placement supervisor and another student today. These podcasts are SO informative for ALL professionals not just SLT!

Guess who's #NQP start date has just come through... Next week I will be starting my first #SLT role within an Adult Community team and I couldn't be more excited!!

#mySLTday included opening up the convo about #stammers today with a client who's acquired one with her epilepsy. She noticed I had occasions of dysfluency in my speech, giving me an opportunity to remind her that perfection isnt a thing in standard convo and that's OK!!

As a community SLT it's SO important to have good links with the inpatient SLT team to make sure we are providing joined up care for our patients. Today has definitely proved that. Lucy Brands grateful for you!❤ @BDCFT_SLT #mySLTday

Great morning! Hopefully inspiring more future speechies! #mySLTday

I just wanted to give a massive shout out to @BDCFT_SLT for making my first role as a #SLT, the best one! A great bunch of therapists and supported 100% of the way. Will miss you!! ❤ On to something new. Moving from Community to Acute with LTHT Adult SLT 💙 🥳

So apparently part of induction with LTHT Adult SLT 💙 is getting scoped 🤪 Isn't that right Kat Costello?! Amazing job today - look how relaxed we both look! And great having the chance to check out my own swallow anatomy
