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 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

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
