...Disability can affect development in many areas and is different in each child. Any disability can affect how a child interacts with others and they may become withdrawn or isolated. It can also affect behavioural development as they may become frustrated or angry if they find certain activities difficult. Not all disabilities affect all areas of development. Some will only affect one or two. For example, if a child has ASD, their social and emotional development could be affected or it could be their social and behaviour that’s affected. A child with a hearing impairment may find their language and communication is affected which can then affect their social development.

...The importance and benifits of adults and the environment supporting the speech, language and communication development of children There are many ways in which we as adults can support and extend speech, language and communication development effectively in children during their early years. We need to make sure that the language we use is appropriate for the child’s age/stage of development. We can use resources to help us aid communication, these could be photos, pictures, objects and symbols. With a baby we would use lots of exaggerated facial expressions and single words. We could get really close to them so they can see our face and are on their level and talk in a sing song kind of voice. We can also talk about the things we are doing as a baby will take this all in and listen to us. We can sing songs and rhymes to them. Adults can also look at and talk about simple story books as it really is never too early to share stories. One year old: Adults can copy what sounds the baby is making taking it in turns to simulate having a conversation. Use words that need actions for example bye bye and wave. Saying up and lifting hands up as this will help the baby to understand what the words are and will hopefully encourage them to join in. Singing action songs and playing peep po games will encourage concentration and communication in babies. Eighteen months: As adults we can sing nursery rhymes that need actions, talk to them about what we are doing for example “ Let’s go and...

...1:1 Explain the importance of meeting an individual’s communication needs. ndividuals who have communication problems need support to enable them to express themselves effectively. It is therefore important for the carer to be aware of the individuals preferred method of communication and also to support the individual to use their preferred method. Individuals have the right to communicate through their chosen method and their choice should be acknowledged and respected by supporting them. The individual’s right are particularly important when using specific communication methods and language because it’s their major way of communicating their needs and preferences. Communication is a basic human right. Without communication the individual is unable to realise or exercise their rights. Under the Human Rights Act 1998 all individuals have the right to ‘freedom of expression’. If unable to communicate they would be denied these rights. 1:2 Explain how own role and practice can impact on communication with an individual who has specific communication needs.

...is to describe an example of communication from my recent clinical placement and discuss the factors that contributed to its outcome. A communication theory can be dated back to 300 BC, when Aristotle provided an explanation of oral communication through his ‘rhetoric’ theory. Here he stated that there were three elements to communicating; the speaker – the message – and the listener, and it is the person at the end of this chain that holds the key to whether or not communication takes place (Roberts, 1924). These underlying principles still remain in today’s modern models of communication, as the essay will demonstrate from looking at Berlo’s (1960) model of communication. The essay will also focus on the importance of communication within the nurse patient relationship. As Riley (2008) states, “communication is the heart of nursing”. (p.3) Firstly the essay will give two definitions of communication and a brief history of the expectations of the nurse over the centuries and how the role has developed to the professional nurse as we know today, and one that is expected by the public. It will then lead on to some examples of methods of communication and a brief explanation of their importance within nursing. I will briefly discuss Berlos (1960) communication theory and demonstrate how the model was used effectively to communicate with a patient with language impairment, which is a deficit in comprehension, production and use of language (Newman 2011). To achieve...

...Students entering the field of speech-language pathology or audiology recognize the rigorous academic coursework required to complete the degree. They are aware of the time, effort and dedication it will take to become certified professionals. Clinical practicum requirements, internship placements and comprehensive exams are at the forefront of their concerns. Conversely, professional issues including ethics and workplace dilemmas seem to be the least of their worries. Beginning clinicians may enter the workforce assuming all professionals adhere to ethical standards. They may think "workplace dilemmas" are simply fabricated scenarios they will never encounter. Unfortunately, the dynamic and evolving scope of the professions of speech-language pathology and audiology can present unforeseen challenges in the workplace, especially for beginning clinicians. However, with the proper education and training, students can enter the workforce prepared to handle any conflict that may compromise their ethicality. In order to demonstrate how to resolve ethical dilemmas occurring in the workplace, two scenarios involving support personnel, prescription and misrepresentation will be discussed in further detail. The first scenario involves the administrator of an outpatient rehabilitation clinic. She is requiring a certified speech-language pathologist (SLP) to supervise a speech-language pathology assistant (SLPA). While supervising a session, the SLP notices the SLPA performing a diagnostic...

...CYP Core 3.1 4.3 Play and activities are used to support the development of speech, language and communication because children can learn by copying how others interact with one another. Speech and language doesn’t always come natural to everyone and sometimes it needs gentle encouragement from others around them, this is done by copying what is said and done. This is usually encouraged by things that interest the child which can then be fun for the child which then helps them learn how to communicate. An example of play and activities to support speech, language and communication is that by the use of dolls, puppets and toys because when a child becomes interested in communicating with the doll they begin to role play which indicates that they are ready to use new words and are improving their vocabulary. Another example would be nursery rhymes, songs and musical instruments because they are helpful for communication skills. These encourage children...
