Imagine walking into an aphasia evaluation knowing exactly what you’re testing, why you’re testing it, and what you’ll do with the answer.

We asked Brett McCardel, MS, CCC-SLP, BC-ANCDS, to spend two days showing us how current models of language in the brain translate into the decisions we make in front of a real patient.

The course covers:

• How contemporary psycholinguistic and network neuroscience models inform aphasia assessment and rehabilitation
• How to read patterns of performance and error to build hypotheses about the underlying processing impairment
• Assessment and treatment of spoken expression, auditory comprehension, reading, written language, and numerical processing, with case studies for each
• How to set goals and design treatment that aligns with the Life Participation Approach to Aphasia, so the outcomes you write are the ones your patient actually wants
