Working with Communication and Swallowing Difficulties in Older Adults (Paperback)

* Provides valuable guidance for all student and practising SLTs who are working with older people with communication and swallowing difficulties. * Offers a holistic approach, not only looking at the physiological/biological effects, but taking into account the psychological and social impacts of aging. * Bridges theory and practice, with an emphasis on practical strategies and advice for clinicians to use in their daily work. * Dispels the myths which sound aging (due to a lack of knowledge of what is considered to be within normal range), which can lead to misdiagnosis.
