Intervention for Speech and Language Impairment | 2025 Stanford 6th Annual Neuromuscular

Amy Roman, a licensed speech-language pathologist specializing in augmentative and alternative communication (AAC), delivered a comprehensive presentation on communication interventions for individuals with neuromuscular diseases. She explored three primary areas of intervention: voice preservation techniques, communication strategies and counseling, and augmentative alternative communication methods. Roman emphasized the importance of early intervention, discussing various technological tools. She highlighted that communication impairments extend beyond speech difficulties and can include respiratory insufficiency, impaired hand use, and cognitive changes. The presentation stressed the need for personalized, multimodal communication approaches, with a focus on preserving patient identity, conserving energy, and providing flexible communication solutions across different environments and stages of neuromuscular diseases. Roman also provided practical advice for healthcare professionals on referrals, device selection, and training. View accreditation information and claim CME at https://stanford.cloud-cme.com/course...
