Abstract

Communication challenges in persons with aphasia may negatively affect their health care. Building effective communication skills is critical for health professional student education, yet communication skills for interacting with persons with aphasia are often not taught or practiced within health care education. A review of the literature found that research is limited but does demonstrate evidence-based training can improve skills for health professional students. Through utilization of workshops, seminars, and standardized patients, medical students and other health professional students can build confidence and skills in successful communication for future encounters with persons with aphasia.
