Summary
Aphasia is a communication disability that occurs in up to 30% of stroke survivors. Most people with aphasia do not currently receive the amount and type of treatment they need. The aim of this research is to evaluate the implementation of this comprehensive high dose aphasia treatment in clinical settings. Implementation will occur through partnerships with service providers, consumer organisations and clinical networks. This work will provide a new way to manage aphasia and improve lives.
