Sign Language For Stroke Patients: Insights And Helps From A Stroke Survivor

If you know someone who is struggling with regaining their communication skills following a stroke or other brain trauma, this straightforward book may open the door to improved communication and decreased frustration for your patient, friend, or loved one. Dr. Gary and Mrs. Sandi Yarnall have combined their years of working with special needs individuals with their own personal experiences to produce Sign Language For Stroke Patients. These two dedicated individuals understand both the frustration of lost communication skills and the joy of rediscovering how to carry on everyday conversations by using American Sign Language.

By following their own personal journey to recovery following a devastating stroke, you will find practical help and hopeful encouragement in your own journey to wholeness or in your calling to care for others. Brain injuries can leave patients with a limited capacity to articulate words and language in a way to which they are accustomed. This typically leads to frustration for the patient and caregiver. But the injury impacting vocal language skills doesn't always impact the patient's ability to learn and use manual sign language. This creates an opportunity for the patient to learn a "new language" and restore their ability to carry on basic conversations that are so essential to daily well-being.
