I am tickled pink 🥰 In 1998 I chose a tool to measure social networks in ppl w aphasia for my PhD & published about it in 2003 & 2006, and share/teach it with students and SLTs. Sitting here in #BCconf23 and carers & therapists use this tool! See here tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.108…
Honoured to have shared our experience delivering a pilot #ICAP at #RCSLTConf2023 with @LibbyAllanSLT - the volume of questions we've received demonstrates SLTs' interest to advancing #aphasia rehab. IMO A positive step forward!

Today not one but two members of the team were awarded a fellowship of the @RCSLT for their research and its impact within #SLT - Rebecca @RPalmerSLT and Suzanne @BCAphasia Congratulations! 🎉🎉🎉 #RCSLTAwards
You can keep up to date with the APT project here ⬇️ Thank you @MadelineCruice for sharing this important work 👏
Aphasia Partnership Training (APT) is dyadic- targeting the PWA & CP and working with stakeholders to develop the programme A concensus was reached that APT should include instruction/feedback, setting goals, solving communication problems, demonstration & much more!#BASConf23
First of our oral presentations is @MadelineCruice sharing her work with @BCAphasia and team on how they developed a communication partner training programme, considering research & evidence, lived experience and clinical perspectives #BASConf23 #aphasia
Results - full consensus achieved on 16 BCTs, linked to 11 MoAs Couldn't write quick enough to share all of these! Such incredible detail and specificity @APTproject2 There is overlap with existing literature with 5 BCTs so these are key:
Great to hear some outcomes from @APTproject2 identifying some key behavioural change techniques to embed in CPT and aligned with @msfionajohnson ✔️goal setting ✔️instruction ✔️demonstration ✔️practise ✔️feedback @BASConf2023 #BASconf2023
More talks from the #NIHR funded @APTproject2, now @RPalmerSLT shares what outcomes ppl with aphasia, family members & SLTs expect What do we need to measure? The systematic reviews use 56 different outcomes measures. Perhaps we are not that clear on what change we are expecting
@APTproject2 56 systemic reviews of CPT found 56 different outcome measures! Stakeholders asked ❔what do we expect from what we’re doing ➡️ agreement from all that improvements in convos and thoughts/feelings are v important @BASConf2023
Really enjoyed hearing about the @APTproject2 by @MadelineCruice and @RPalmerSLT – particularly 1.key ingredients that should be in every communication partner training and 2. Does improvement of ‘talking’ mean something different to PWA and SLTs? @BASConf2023 #BASConf2023
