Other • I was somewhat confused by the format of this question and didn't know how to answer. Many of these items are things I would love to integrate more in my practice but currently do not. For example, I would like to do more community-based and functional assessments and intervention strategies but find there are barrier to doing this (caseload demands and a large rural region mean that I cannot see the clients as often and for as long as I would like to) - some services not available in our community • Work in home care setting. • We are a consult based program with few staff to manage a large zone in facility and assisted living. Another barrier is other professionals being aware of our program in order to refer to us. • Not enough community programs, and long waitlists for those that do exist. 42
Question 30 - EVIDENCE-BASED EDUCATION: Currently, which of the following are enablers and which are barriers in determining what you actually work on in therapy with people with aphasia. Comments: Funding • On-line information is available but usually tied into a fee to access which makes it a barrier. It would be nice to have a specific website to go for therapy techniques when starting out in stroke rehab Support • Lack of organizational support for above in acute care hospital and in community, especially community care access services. Training • I took the <strong>Aphasia</strong> <strong>Institute</strong> (AI) "Train the Trainer" course, and have used the materials to train staff, families and volunteers - very useful. AI pictographic resources were donated to our hospital by Central East Stroke Network - very useful. I find "speechpathology.com" a very inexpensive continuing ed resource. • Training in adult AAC- low and high tech- enabler for me • Time for PD is limited. • We've had difficulty getting enough people to run education for family. Other • I own a private practice which specializes in stroke care. We just completed a telehealth project which we hope to present at the Canadian Stroke Network Conference. 43
