Course Title:
Language Disorders in Adults
Course Description:
Provides students with the foundation needed to work with frequently referred adult-impaired populations across clinical settings. Speech, language, and cognitive-linguistic disorders are typical consequences of acquired central and peripheral nervous system adult impairments. Emphasis is placed on the anatomy/etiology/neurology/physiology of commonly acquired adult communication disorders (including aphasia, apraxia, dementia, dysarthria, and traumatic brain injury), characteristics of these communication disorders, and intervention approaches (diagnostic and therapeutic). Prevention, outcome, efficacy, and service-delivery considerations are addressed.
