Interdisciplinary Community Aphasia Group
Facilitator Program Manual
Description:... "This manual was first developed for use in a clinical trial examining the efficacy of a 12-week community aphasia group model: the InterD-CAG. The trial targeted living well with aphasia and was designed for people with chronic post-stroke aphasia and their nominated significant others. We developed this manual to maximise treatment fidelity and to provide guidance in managing the administrative, logistic, and content-driven components of the treatment program. It includes the content that formed the program package provided to participants. Now that the trial is complete, we are making this manual widely available as a comprehensive resource for speech-language pathologists and other health professionals undertaking a community aphasia group program block for living well with aphasia. By using this manual, our treatment program can easily be adopted by other researchers and clinicians-either in its entirety or selected sections. We encourage readers to apply the program characteristics and content flexibly"--Manual.
