A (frantically) written word or two can go a long way… 📝💡 A lovely joint session with physio this week supporting a severely aphasic patient to transfer from bed to chair and gain some confidence. Sometimes the simple things can make the biggest difference ☺️✨

On #InternationalWomensDay I'm thinking of women around the world facing danger and injustice. Whether giving birth displaced and under siege in Gaza, fleeing war and sexual violence in Sudan, or denied education and employment in Afghanistan. The feminist struggle is global.

The #SLT profession has always been at the heart of the NHS, diversifying the role to meet the demands of an ever-evolving system, and supporting people across multiple clinical areas with swallowing and communication needs. #NHSbirthday #NHS75 @RCSLTWales @rcsltscot @RCSLTNI

Thickened Fluids Risks @RCSLT ⬆️ Increased: - thirst and dehydration - urinary tract infections - early satiety - altered bowel habits - oral and pharyngeal residue - LRTIs on aspirated thickened fluids ⬇️ Decreased: - health and social-related QOL - bioavailability of meds
We have produced a statement on the use of thickened fluids for managing dysphagia. You can read it here: rcslt.org/news/our-statement… #RCSLT #SLT #SLPeeps #SpeechAndLanguageTherapy #Dysphagia

Overseas trained doctor at their first trauma call in the NHS turned to me as team leader & asked- “What will be my privilege in the care of this patient?” Some things are found, not lost in translation Every role we play in the care of others is a privilege #NHS #Trauma
