Lovely morning on the stroke unit! What a fantastic effort by our wonderful SALT team, really raising awareness of the importance of nutrition and hydration whilst in hospital to our patients and staff! #SALT #NHweek #drinkup #eatup /#stroke

I didn’t really understand #Aphasia It’s not just an inability to speak properly. For me, being able to get words out was just the start. You just assume everything you want to say spills out of your mouth. English is now a 2nd language, everything I say is very deliberate

Lots in the media this week on #Aphasia, including on Good Morning Britain today with Dr. Hilary Jones MBE. The main intervention for people with aphasia is #speechandlanguagetherapy, which dramatically improves communication ability and quality of life--this is backed up by strong evidence. 1/

In tonight's #Emmerdale we saw Rhona save Marlon from choking. Swallowing problems are very common after a stroke. Almost half of people who have a stroke will have swallowing problems at first. Read more about the signs and tips to manage: bit.ly/3xBJjQJ
