Hi
I'm an SLP and am trying to help a patient with ALS. He is having increasing difficulty getting his words started. It is almost like a stuttering block. He knows what he is trying to say - it isn't a word finding problem. I'm sure it is some sort of motor corodination/control issue. I don't know what to suggest that might help. Any ideas?
We are working on getting him an augmentative communication system but of course want to help him maximize his ability to verbalize.
Thanks for your help.
