Communication is at the heart of our relationships, so when someone you love and care for has aphasia, you are affected too.
Caregivers of people with aphasia tell us that they:
often don’t feel informed about aphasia or what to expect;
can find it difficult to understand their loved one; and
are uncertain about how to help make conversations better.
We also know that caregiving can be isolating, and that it’s easy for carers to put their own needs aside.
Support for family and friends
I am currently working to produce resources to support caregivers of people with aphasia, helping you to build your understanding of aphasia, and give you some tools to help you have easier conversations at home.
