Assessing Aging Adults: The Whos, Whats, Whens, Whys & Hows - Amanda Stead, Ph.D, CCC-SLP

Access Activity

Overview / Abstract:

The population over age 65 is set to balloon from 30 million currently to over 75 million in 20 years. With this increase, there is a greater need for clinicians to be prepared for long-term tracking and assessment of abilities. Speech-Language Pathologists will be at the forefront of service for this growing demographic. The differentiation between what is "normal" and what is not is often difficult to distinguish, and can be altered by many circumstances. This course will explore the boundaries between age associated decline and pathological decline, as well as ways to assess the difference. The course will also address strategies to track changes over time and when those changes may indicate the need for further intervention.
