This resource helps therapists introduce AAC options to adults who are exploring alternative ways to communicate after changes in speech. Use it to compare access methods, communication needs, and device features and support collaborative conversations about which options may be worth exploring. This printable handout is for speech-language pathologists working with adult patients, covering Aphasia and Stroke. Print Resource, US Letter, 2 pages. Members can view and print it.

Use this resource when a patient, family, or colleague asks:

  • How do I match AAC access methods to an adult’s physical abilities?
  • How do I choose between simple and robust AAC for an adult new to AAC?
  • What AAC options should I introduce to an adult with newly acquired communication needs?
