Congratulations to Toronto Grace’s Lisa Chong, Speech-Language Pathologist, and Shannon Schryer, Communications Disorders Assistant, who were acknowledged for providing feedback to the Aphasia Institute on their 2014 publication “TALKING to your Speech-Language Pathologist – Help your Speech-Language Pathologist to help you”.
This publication provides “Pictographic Resources for People Who Know More Than They Can Say.”
“Listening, taking the extra time with someone, helping them to find different ways to communicate – regardless of their capabilities or language background – are important, because they help the person’s voice to be heard, and to help them participate more meaningfully and actively in life.” Lisa Chong
Lisa and Shannon are members of our interdisciplinary health team which work together to assess and then treat the patient’s needs and goals.
