The Feasibility of Modified Multimodal Communication Treatment With Discourse via Telepractice for People With Aphasia
We discussed the advantages and challenges of teleMCT+D based on the feasibility results such as limited view and control of the environment, which limited nonspoken modality training at times. Future directions include following the suggested modifications in a large sample with various types and severities of aphasia. Preliminary evidence supporting that a telepractice format for communication breakdown resolution treatment for people with aphasia is feasible and acceptable can provide better access to underserved populations.
