Experiences and perspectives of UK speech and language therapists on telehealth assessment with people living with post‐stroke aphasia

What is already known on the subject There is emerging evidence for the use of telehealth assessment as a feasible and appropriate means of service delivery for SLTs. However, little is known about SLTs' experience of delivering telehealth assessments to PWA. What this paper adds to existing knowledge This study identified both the facilitators and barriers experienced by SLTs when using telehealth assessment with PWA. Practical advice and considerations for telehealth administration are provided. What are the potential or actual clinical implications of this work? Resources are required for the implementation of SLT telehealth assessments, particularly in training for both PWA and SLTs, assessments designed for telehealth and accessible telehealth platforms. A hybrid approach to assessment could be beneficial for both PWA and clinicians, retaining the advantages with the acknowledgement that telehealth may not be suitable for all.
