Stroke SLTs & Assistants have long run groups for patients with aphasia and dysarthria @DaybrookWard. SLTA Zainab has now started running groups in QMC @NUH_Stroke wards - great to have more chances for communication & interaction #dayinthelife.
One of the @NUHAcuteSLT Assistant roles #dayinthelife is to track AAC communication equipment, ensure servicing up-to-date (thanks MESU), loan to patients as prescribed by therapists, and help with staff training and awareness. @SLTAcen
SLTAs @NUHAcuteSLT use Word, PowerPoint, Paint, Publisher & other software for therapy & activity resources. Now adding Canva in the cafe draft below, & trying out AI for therapy word lists. #dayinthelife @SLTAcen
Calling all #mouthcarematters advocates.Monday 20th March is #worldoralhealthday. Let’s use this day for #mouthcare discussions. Share the good work that is happening, the barriers and what we need to do next to keep #mouthcarematters as a priority for all ages in all settings
SLT Neuro Team spreading swallow awareness on the ward with a presentation & lots of sweets! #SwallowAware2023 #dysphagia #nhweek2023 @NUHTherapies @nottmhospitals
Sharing Swallow Awareness Day with World Delirium Day here at @NUHCriticalCare with Rehab Lead Nurse @ruth_pettit, bedside education for the Nurses & MDT on all things swallowing and delirium in critical care! 🧠🗣️🍽️ #SwallowAware2023 @NUHTherapies #nhweek2023 @RCSLT
Fabulous to get such enthusiastic engagement from nursing staff w our Swallowing Awareness Day stand on Southwell ward @NUH_Respiratory this afternoon #swallowaware2023 Experiencing what our patients w #dysphagia go through is really important #nhweek2023 @TeamNUH @NUHTherapies
So happy to have met deputy chief nurse @millca21 today. Great discussions on how important SLT is in ED in developing stronger communication with the community services and how important SLTs can be to prevent hospital admissions @UCRMidNotts @NottsHCAdultSLT @sfh_slt
A great way to take #mouthcarematters hands on training onto the wards. The model shows how oral material can be aspirated #mouthcare #denturecare @sashnhs

First training session with @NUHDREEAM and all the lovely nursing teams in @teamEDnuh We’ve been talking #IDDSI and sampling Level 2 Mildly Thick Fluids as part of our 3 month #SLTinED pilot. Thank you to Kirsty from #DREEAM for yr support! @nottmhospitals @TeamNUH @SiddonsTracy
@Keir_Starmer Please don’t fall into the trap of ‘Drs & Nurses’. The system needs a focus on rehab to help patient flow, to improve people’s independence & reduce costs down the line, so more physios, OTs, SLTs are also needed
Another positive day on @teamEDnuh working w gr8 #MDT! Thanks to Sam & Gianna 4 yr support 2day & 4 trying #IDDSI thickened drinks. We’re receiving such positive feedback from staff, Pts & relatives about the #SLTinED 3 month pilot @nottmhospitals @QMCEDACP @NUHAdultSLT #mySLTday
