Great physio session today @WSHPhysio Positive rehab for working towards resuming normal duties @WSH_SALT and maybe just maybe dancing by Christmas! Thank you #AHPsuffolk
Just had surgery in the hospital I work in. @WestSuffolkNHS the care I received was amazing from all the staff in ward F10, OTs, the kind and jolly porters who help to calm your nerves, the theatre staff, admissions team and pharmacy. Thank you x
Great collaboration @WSH_SALT and @EastSuffolkSALT on first Suffolk Regional Rare Dementia PPA support group. Great turnout and well received. Good to see continuity of pts from diagnosis @CambridgeFTD. Thank you @RareDementia for the opportunity.
Final F2F Cog Stim & Comms Grp. Increased conversation and participants interacting. Highlighted lack of support for early onset/younger dementia pts. Inspired work to be done @WSH_SALT @maggiewoodhouse @GyldaNunn @NHSWSCCG @alzheimerssoc. Great gift from pts
1st day of 2nd F2F Comms group based on CST. 6 pts referred from memory services to SALT for 1 to 1 and then group. Great continuity of services & collaboration with @wsh_SALT & @wsh dementia services with @maggiewoodhouse. #dementia #aphasia #personcentredcare #integration
New research study to test communication screening tool to help empower patients in clinical settings A team of researchers led by Dr Mark Jayes, from @ManMetUni have secured funding from @NIHRresearch to further test the screening tool mmu.ac.uk/research/news-… @MCAsupporttool
First patient participant recruited today! Four ward staff all ready to go. Now just need to get that first recording in the can! @ILWindeatt @RowanHarwood @se_goldberg @HcopTeam
So super excited to share this important international collaboration on principles & philosophies of #SLT for #PPA! An essential for all #SLTs / #SLPs Thanks to my amazing co-authors @JadeCartwright Leanne Ruggero @deborahhersh @BCAphasia (1/2) tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…
Calling all #SLT #SLPs : Do you use the citric acid test in practice to support #dysphagia diagnosis? If so, do you find it effective and useful? If no, is this because of contraindications/limited evidence or other reasons? Thank you!
Great joint review of complex patient today with @stnichhospice for EOL care and assess capacity to feedback to GP. We need to do more of this @liza_asti @helengwalker
The most amazing place to work, what are you waiting for B6’s. A great opportunity to join a forward thinking, supportive and experienced team!!

Last session of pilot F2F Cog Stim comms group with @WSH_SALT @maggiewoodhouse (some participants hiding!). Highlighted lack of onward services for People with dementia/carers. Great feedback received @GyldaNunn @liza_asti @JulieFountain92 @volkmer_anna #integratedservices
Feedback from F2F Cog Stim Comm group today from a patient’s wife ‘He engages much more in conversation after he has been here’ Our job is getting done’. Great to be joined by our new B5 @maggiewoodhouse @WSH_SALT @GyldaNunn #personcentered #dementia #groups
So great to be face to face and very well received. @WSH_SALT @liza_asti @maggiewoodhouse
Can anyone recommend any good, simple, readily available outcome measures to use for group work with people with dementia and communication difficulties focussing on communication and well being @volkmer_anna @laurabraithslt @HelenPalmerSLT @S_J_W_9 @BCPPAphasia
