Contact us
Description
A stroke often affects a person’s ability to speak, understand what people are saying, and read and write. This difficulty in using language is called dysphasia (or aphasia). Our Communication Support Co-ordinators work with people who have had a stroke and their families on aspects of communication. The service is delivered through regular home visits, group meetings and activities and events.
