How the role of SALTs comes into play following a patients removal from ventilators πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»πŸ‘πŸ»
Some Covid-19 survivors are suffering unexpected side-effects that have left them with difficulty eating or speaking. It's because of damage done to their throats when being put on ventilators and for some it means having to relearn basic life skills. @SomersetFT | @RCSLT
Brilliant visual to show the colourful language that should be available to AAC users!

I changed the way I teach new vocabulary. Fewer words, slower process, more effortful, but better understanding and use. #engchat #pypchat

β€œUntil we have more focus on language comprehension skills, it's not going to improve. That always strikes me when I see these scores come out. My heart drops a bit because we're ignoring a huge part of the equation.” -Tiffany Hogan on the Harvard EdCast hgse.me/2sgoHjS
