25.01.2022 Encouraging findings, and links in with research discussed on Catalyst a few weeks ago. Worth a watch.

23.01.2022 ‘Tis the season for Christmas craft!

22.01.2022 A wonderful film featuring dads, who often play an important role away from the spotlight. https://dadfilm.com.au/

21.01.2022 This article gives you an overview of aphasia and stroke recovery, which is often misunderstood. Spread the word, raise awareness, and join us in providing support for persons with aphasia. Shared from BRAIN Injury Awareness

21.01.2022 What a wonderfully positive program. Why can't we do it in WA? http://www.themercury.com.au/t/story-fnj3twbb-1227512994969

20.01.2022 May is action month for the International Communication Project - raising awareness of the impact of communication disorders. Did you know... 12% of children in Australian primary schools have a communication disorder - that's at least 30 children in an average school (of 250 students) and three in an average class. ... Sounds a lot? Think of children with a hearing loss...with speech difficulties who are difficult to understand...with language difficulties who find it hard to communicate with friends or teachers....with auditory processing difficulties who find it hard to breakdown and analyse the building blocks of literacy.... children who have a stutter....children with autism spectrum disorder who find it hard to communicate socially...physical disabilities like cerebral palsy which make communicating difficult. What would a day at school look like for them?

19.01.2022 A challenging and inspiring 3 days at the Speech Pathology Australia national conference https://www.facebook.com/SpeechPathologyAustralia/posts/1061614417210848:0

19.01.2022 A powerful reminder for all of us

18.01.2022 Stutterer, written and directed by Benjamin Cleary, won the 2016 Oscar in the category of Best Short Film (Live Action). The Film details one mans trials and t...ribulations living with a stutter. Stuttering can affect children, adolescents and adults. Around 1% of the population experiences stuttering at any given time and as many as 5% across a life time. Warning: the film contains sexual references and offensive language bit.ly/1LRzOxe See more

17.01.2022 Research shows up to 46% of young Australian offenders may have a language impairment. With better awareness of communication disorders could we prevent some of these from being involved in the justice system in the first place?

16.01.2022 The aftermath of a whole lot of fun. Love my days in clinic.

16.01.2022 I had the pleasure of chatting to a group of mums at the Australian Breastfeeding Association Koongamia group on Monday. Thank you for having me, and for the gorgeous gift.

15.01.2022 Vitally important for research to be focussed on causative factors, but when there is already a wealth of data demonstrating no link between ASD and vaccinations, why can't we move on and look for other factors? Or even better, direct some of that funding towards evidenced based outcomes for therapy?

15.01.2022 Looking for evidence around screen time and the effect on language? Or specific guidelines as recommended by those in the know? Here's a quick summary of the latest research: http://www.hanen.org/Helpful-//ipad-equals-dont-talk.aspx

15.01.2022 Just trying to do our job... http://www.thepoke.co.uk/2015/09/01/visit-speech-therapist/

14.01.2022 What a wonderful thing to do http://www.abc.net.au//the-lion-king-autism-friend/6804586

14.01.2022 Before the giggling starts ;) let me highlight a really important issue. Many people who suffer stroke, head injury, head and neck surgery, degenerative diseases, dementia, physical disability and more, can suffer from a swallowing disorder. The simple process of enjoying a cup of tea may become life threatening. Spare a thought for those who can no longer enjoy or share a meal or drink and have to maintain their nutrition through enteral feeding or modified diets. Look after your bodies - don't smoke, eat well, exercise and keep healthy, and hopefully we can continue to enjoy one of the basic pleasures of life - sharing a meal with those we love.

10.01.2022 Ooh finally got my website going! Please don't look for typos yet - there is still a bit of editing to do...but I just wanted it to go live! http://www.splicetherapy.com.au/

10.01.2022 Dysphagia, more commonly known as swallowing difficulty, suffers from poor public awareness. Most commonly affecting people after stroke or degenerative disease, it can also affect newborns, people with disabilities and even the most healthy among us. Worth a quick read, even if it is to remind us to be thankful for every meal, coffee and wine we can enjoy without impediment. https://newrepublic.com//dysphagia-its-like-waterboarded-2

09.01.2022 Researchers from Telethon Kids Institute are seeking grandparents who have a child with autism, and/or a grandchild with autism, to participate in a study that ...aims to measure patterns of autistic traits across generations and gain an understanding of grand-parenting in the context of ASD in their family. Participation involves the completion of two surveys, completed either online, by return post, or via interview (telephone or in person).

08.01.2022 One of my biggest frustrations, which is often shared by teachers, is that we are expecting more and more from our kids when they may not be developmentally ready. Why is our government intent on formalising school from an earlier age? This article is from 2014 and the UK, but still relevant. Research indicates that children who attend school later or are exposed to less formalised education catch up to their peers in early years of schooling. More concerning for us in Australia is that we may actually be doing our children harm by increasing pressure from an early age. https://theconversation.com/hard-evidence-at-what-age-are-c

06.01.2022 Happy Speech Pathology Week!

05.01.2022 I loved having access to a toy library when my kids were little. A great resource to support and use

05.01.2022 To highlight the start of Speech Pathology Week here are some important communication impairment statistics: 20% of four year old children have difficulty understanding or using language 28% of teachers take time off work each year because of voice problems... At least 30% of people post-stroke suffer loss of language (aphasia) 85% of those with Parkinsons disease have voice, speech and/or swallowing difficulties 13,000 Australians use electronic communication aids to get their message across Children with a language impairment are six times more likely to have a reading problem than children without 46% of young Australian offenders have a language impairment There is a high correlation between communication difficulties and poor mental health Three in every 1,000 newborns have hearing loss, which without intervention can affect their speech, language and literacy. Indigenous children have three times more hearing problems than non-Indigenous children

02.01.2022 Drop in for a visit at Darlington Dental Surgery on the 20th Nov for a free chat. We'd love to see you :) https://www.facebook.com//a.168246890042/447064688827685/

02.01.2022 Posted via Speech Pathology Australia. Very small steps towards the better diagnosis and hopefully treatment of Autism Spectrum Disorders. http://www.medicaldaily.com/autism-related-language-delays-

01.01.2022 well some surprises there....but not that speech pathology came up in the top 10! Yes it's a US study but worthwhile having a look. I'd still prefer speech pathology over being a mathematician or an actuary (yawn) http://www.cnbc.com/id/101582641
