Happy #IndependenceDay - Wishing you and your family a safe and happy Fourth of July.

Imagine being unable to ask your loved ones about their day or say, "I love you." This is the reality for those living with aphasia. Aphasia is a disorder that results from damage to portions of the brain that are responsible for language. June is National Aphasia Awareness Month, a time to share some key technological advancements that provide vital assistance to individuals living with aphasia. Augmentative Alternative Communication (AAC) devices can consist of all forms of communication (other than oral speech) that are used to express thoughts, needs, wants and ideas. They can be used to either supplement existing speech or used in place of speech that is absent or not functional. These innovative tools enhance the everyday lives of people with aphasia, empowering them to communicate effectively and regain their independence. #Aphasia #TechnologyAssistance #LetsTalkAphasia

Your loved one just suffered a stroke. You rush to the hospital to be by their side and find you are at a loss for words when you realize the road to recovery that lies ahead. After a stroke, your loved one may also be at a loss for words. While difficulty communicating is a common and immediate symptom of stroke, it’s also one that can continue in the future. Communication challenges – including how fluently and clearly a stroke patient can speak and how well they can comprehend others – can persist long after the stroke. This is called aphasia. If you have a loved one who is struggling with aphasia, you can play an important role in improving their quality of life.

On June 19, 1865, the remaining enslaved Black Americans were freed in the United States. Today, we recognize the rich history and resilience of our black communities. #Juneteenth

Nursing assistants have a tremendous impact on the patient care experience within our hospitals. Likewise, patients often leave a lasting impression on the nursing assistants. Given that, we asked our nursing assistants to “describe a meaningful moment” they had with their patients. Their answers were touching and heartwarming.
