How can we best implement communication partner training with familiar partners of people with aphasia?
In this International Journal of Language and Communication Disorders paper the authors set out to:
(1) determine the perceived and/or observed barriers and facilitators to implementing CPT with familiar partners of adults with aphasia;
(2) to map extracted barriers and facilitators to a common theoretical framework; (3) to synthesise extracted barriers and facilitators;
and (4) to identify potential implementation strategies to address the most frequently identified barriers and facilitators.
