Enhance communication after a stroke? - communication for stroke victims
My friends father had a stroke in September. It was a very verbal, intelligent personality, and again approximately 75% of capacity, but communication is difficult for him orally. My friend wants to be able to communicate with his father to speak but is very frustrating for him. Is there a way to communicate with stroke patients improve, their cognitive skills are fully intact? Please help. It is very annoying, and I want an answer for him.

It is very difficult to say, something concrete, because the nature and severity of problems comminication people after a stroke vary widely experienced. For example, communication difficulties you may have problems becuse of strength and control over the muscles of the mouth and face, what would be the clear language, unintelligible, hard to understand, even though the friend, father, that you know exactly what you mean. It might be difficult to think of the names of things, but he should be able to understand the word, if someone with him, have difficulty forming sentences, and so on.
In fact, he needs to be a Speech and Language Therapist (SLT) / speech (the same work, so-called different things in different countries), if not already done so. Realistically, it is unlikely that many more times can the capacity of its pre-8 months later, but the SLT should be able to advise his friend and father in a number of compensatory strategies.
Your friendto identify what makes it so hard for him and his father to communicate with each other? If you can solve it, he can be in a position to do something to compensate. For example, if (he remembered for his father, what happened was difficult would be difficult for an interview because you could end up this way: "You remember you, when we went to the park yesterday?" ER, No, do not go to park yesterday? ", etc.), perhaps her father could write down the things and / or take pictures to remember him. If your parents have difficulty" finding "the words have the feeling that the tip of the tongue and not say that - everyone has already asked, but it may get worse after a stroke - the development of what it can help you find the word useful. For some people it is as easy as with the letters of alphabet and see written. Once you prepare the letter that begins with the word may be long enough for the rest of the word.
It should have been evaluated by a speech practice.If therapist.Just practice, practice, treated to a therapist is not an option, then a series of communications may be noted to.If understand and write big words on the blackboard like thirst Bathroom Get up, up, we tell them hungry and seek the services of a speech
