"Communication Disability in Aging" according to ksblujay. Wonderful textbook. Came quickly and was in great condition. I highly recommend this textbook for anyone in interested in the aging process and communication. Is a good resource for any one in healthcare.
This manual presents state-of-the-art theory and practical information on the management of communication disability in older adults. Emphasis is placed on going beyond knowledge of the impairment to understanding the consequence of the communication disability on the quality of daily life.. Readers receive a strong foundation for understanding the impact of the environment, social and medical, as well as the aging and disease processes that affect communication of older adults. The role of speech-language pathologists and audiologists in prevention and intervention is covered in detail with a realistic view of multidisciplinary care settings
