Webinaire : Le rôle de l'orthophoniste dans les soins FTDHeure de début là où vous êtes : 21h00 UTC

How can speech-language pathologists (SLPs) help individuals and their family members who are coping with a diagnosis of FTD? This presentation will describe how SLPs can develop a practical roadmap that targets a person-centered, functional plan of care to increase meaningful life participation in daily activities.

Becky Khayum, MS, CCC-SLP will discuss strategies for different FTD syndromes, including primary progressive aphasia, behavioral variant FTD, and the movement disorders. She will talk about ways SLPs can treat many types of cognitive challenges, including speaking, comprehension, reading, writing, memory, insight, and behavioral changes. Finally, she will describe how SLPs work collaboratively with other healthcare professionals to develop care approaches for individuals across living environments (at home, assisted living or skilled nursing).
