We love to see this. Well done to Moira and Deirdre. Encouraging ++ to see widespread enthusiasm in our profession for implementing neuroaffirmative care. Will be key in outlining our updated position in SLT on supporting autistic people moving forward. @iaslt

Well done to @DavidOSheaSLT who presented today at #IASLTCon23 about parent expectations and experiences of SLT services for autistic children. 🙌🙌🙌 Person centred services need to be directly informed by the families that use the services. @iaslt

📢 Calling all SLT professionals - you likely already support and work with neurodivergent SLT professionals! We're planning a newsletter for you, launching in 2024. 📢 Even if you've already signed up to our mailing list, update your info and opt in: https://t.co/HhGUOe7qm8

This is an unmitigated disaster for Irish healthcare and a grave disappointment for HSCPs who are primed and ready to support our public. For our SLT peers who have been left bitterly disappointed this week, we stand with you.
IASLT is disappointed by the HSE plans to extend the recruitment freeze & to include Health & Social Care professionals. During a particularly challenging recruitment period for the HSE, this decision will impact negatively on patient care https://t.co/OUBgUMM1sc

Hello All 👋🏻 I am asking for your help. I really need a few more participants for my PhD research. My research is focused on better understanding autistic girls' experiences of mainstream post-primary education in the Republic of Ireland. #AutismResearch

There are no pre-requisites for robust AAC. #PECS is not to use AAC.
The last but dangerous gasps of a dying organisation? Pyramid Educational Consultants blatantly lying in their latest information about the pre-requisites to access their limiting speech generating app.

We had a bit of fun customising this birthday card yesterday. An even better time was had at the party 🥳 Lots of interest in Arabella’s AAC communication device by other children & it always encourages me how inquisitive they are but also respectful. #AACaware23 #AACIreland

Great to see @iaslt acknowledge the risks of CDNT structures that are lacking in terms of clinical governance, lacking in terms of opportunities for clinical specialisation and lacking in terms of not enabling clinicians to make a timely, meaningful difference to service users.
In light of our recent joint statement with HSCP Professional Bodies & IASLT's 2022 Statement which focuses on significant concerns in relation to the safety of Children's Disability services we would like to invite you to meet with IASLT representatives. https://t.co/2JvnBOpIq2
