The role of education, concept knowledge, work setting and clinical experience in communication partner training: A survey of Flemish speech and language therapists
CONCLUSIONS & IMPLICATIONS: To reduce the practice-evidence gap, we suggest prioritising the two most frequently identified barriers, that is, lack of time and CPT-specific knowledge. To overcome the time barrier in CPT, we propose implementing automated natural speech analysis to reduce the workload. To enhance CPT-specific knowledge, speech and language therapy curricula should provide more in-depth theory and hands-on practice for CPT. In addition, increased awareness about CPT-specific methods is needed to further support clinical practice.WHAT THIS PAPER ADDS: What is already known on the subject Communication partner...
