@BasAphasia @BASConf2023 @EPLKingdom Do something.
Brian shared his personal journey after a stroke and highlighted the need to include partners of pw #aphasia. Great to then hear Nelson Hernandez @aphasiacre sharing their work exploring carer interventions @BASConf2023 #BASconf2023
So lovely to chat with everyone at the BAS conference dinner! 🍷 🍲 Perfect opportuniry to build new contacts and friendships and share all the awesome work going on in aphasia! #BASConf23 #aphasia @BASConf2023
Next up we have Shauna Bell and @AndreaHorgan3 sharing their work on socialising in an online vs in person aphasia cafe ☕️ #BASConf23 @BASConf2023
#aphasia and football ⚽️ Inspiring presentation by @tomw_slt @BASConf2023 sharing his dissertation research @sltmarjon @marjonuni
Encouraging to hear much of the content at @BASConf2023 discuss the psychosocial implications of aphasia and how we can support well-being for this cohort! #BASConf23
Excellent keynote from @AziosSLP Significant impact of aphasia on social isolation including loss of friends. Moving 4wards: •ask pwa about friends early on •invite a friend to SLT •train friend in basic strategies ⬇️ @BASConf2023 #BASconf2023
@AziosSLP presenting her qualitative research about supporting people with aphasia to maintain long-term friendships. Here is her advice about what clinicians can do to help. @BASConf2023 @BasAphasia #BASCONF2023
@AziosSLP talking about the importance of addressing loneliness and friendship in people with #aphasia. Something I don’t do enough in clinical practice but tips from PWA- just ask how friendships are going / invite a friend to therapy. #BASConf23 @BASConf2023
Our last set of oral presentations starts with Tom Williams telling us about the barriers for people with aphasia spectating at football matches ⚽️ #BASConf23 #aphasia #football @BASConf2023 #BASConf2023
"nothing in life is more necessary than friendship" ....as SLT's we mustn't forget this when working with people with Aphasia 🙏🏽💚 @AziosSLP @BasAphasia @BASConf2023 @CapriottiGill @ger_ral #aphasia #BASConf23

Final keynote for #BASconf2023 @AziosSLP to talk about friendship and aphasia Social isolation and loneliness: - higher physical illness - higher risk of heart disease, stroke, suicide & 45% increased risk of death 🔹This is a huge public health concern🔹
What can clinicians do to support ppl with aphasia and their friends? Our @BASConf2023 keynote @AziosSLP suggests 1. Ask people how their friendships are. 2. Invite friends to a therapy session 3. Tell friends to be slow down & be patient 4. Share friendship stories #BASConf2023
Our final keynote @BASConf2023 #BASConf2023 is the amazing @AziosSLP speaking about maintaining friendships after acute onset aphasia: “A good friend keeps hope alive”
Our final keynote of #BASConf23 is @AziosSLP sharing work on why we need to be concerned about social isolation, what people with aphasia want us to know about friendships #aphasia #BASConf2023 @BASConf2023
