Perspectives of U.S. speech-language pathologists on supporting the psychosocial health of individuals with aphasia
CONCLUSIONS: This research highlights the necessity of increased training, as well as improved interprofessional collaboration between SLPs and mental health professionals. Limitations of the study include the potential bias of respondents, as well as the number and scope of the questions and responses. Future studies can employ interviews, trial models for collaboration, and partner with IWA to explore their experiences with psychosocial health support and services.PMID:37481944 | DOI:10.1016/j.jcomdis.2023.106365

How John Fetterman Came Out of the Darkness
When he looks back on the past year—a year in which he nearly died, became a U.S. Senator, and nearly died again—it is the debate that John Fetterman identifies as the breaking point.
“The debate lit the mitch,” he says, then shakes his head in frustration and tries again. The right word is there in his brain, but he struggles to get it out. “Excuse me, that should be lit the mitch—” He stops and tries again. “Lit the match,” he says finally.
Oct. 25, 2022: the date is lodged in his mind. “I knew I had to do it,” he tells me. “I knew that the vote...

America Has No Way to Take Care of Mentally Ill People
With evermore unhoused people on the streets of our biggest cities, and publicized subway crimes in New York, mental health treatment is again in the news. Politicians speak about “caring” for the mentally ill in a new way, which turns out to be the old way—putting them away. The mention of involuntary confinement, predictably, sparks anxiety and controversy, giving rise to the question of whom this policy is meant to help: the people taken away or the rest of population, those shopping, jogging, carrying groceries home, who, presumably, will no longer be bothered by the inconvenient reality of a person s...
