Overview / Abstract: |
Oncology professionals, nurses, neuropsychologists, and psychologists have established cancer treatment related cognitive impairment (CTRCI) as a common side-effect of cancer treatment, impacting as many as 75% of cancer survivors; yet, speech-language pathologists have been silent in establishing their role in the treatment of this phenomenon. This presentation will provide the necessary background for them to be able to do so. Clinical symptoms will be defined and therapeutic suggestions offered. A videotape will be played of a person who received speech therapy for CTRCI, talking with a person who feels she needs it. |
