It’s Speech Pathology Week! 💬
This year’s theme is “Communication Creates Possibility”, and it’s a great reminder that communication looks different for everyone.
Communication might be speaking, signing, gestures, facial expressions, pictures, writing, an AAC device, or a combination of different methods.
For our support workers, good communication isn't just about talking.
It’s about taking the time to listen.
Not rushing someone.
Learning how each person communicates.
Offering choices.
Giving someone time to respond.
And making sure the person we're supporting has a genuine say in their own life.
Because being able to communicate isn't just about having a conversation.
It's about being able to choose, connect, participate and be heard💜
This Speech Pathology Week, we also want to recognise the incredible work speech pathologists do alongside people with disability, families and support teams.
ALL Support Plus
Supporting choice, independence and participation.
