The home is the perfect place where people talk and when they are all shown what helps the person with dysarthria, the improvement of speaking becomes a family project.  All of us learned to speak at home without workbooks, technology, etc. and those with dysarthria or aphasia can also.

Many people with speaking difficulties today only get a minimum of skilled speech therapy. In countries outside of the United States, there may be even less skilled care and terminated visits almost as soon as they start.

 Those of us in the profession of speech language pathology must find ways to streamline dysarthria treatment. We must be able to teach the strategies to patient and family and then be prepared for termnation by the insurance provider.   To do anything else but that would be a great disservice to those with dysarthria, aphasia, or apraxia.

The days of extended visits and therapy for dysarthria, aphasia, and apraxia are over, and will only get worse with time. It is for this reason that The Teaching of Talking Method was developed in order to have those with speaking difficulties get intensive speech and language stimulation at home by teaching very simple methods to loved ones there.
