Episode notes

Kinnari & Rabab are in conversation with Ms. Sonal Chitnis, fondly known as the "Aphasia Lady" in India. Ms. Chitnis emphasizes that when a person with a neurogenic disorder walks in our clinic, we need to understand the neurogenic basis of the disorder, the patient as well as the families needs, in order to conduct a functional needs assessment. Furthermore, she discusses a dynamic assessment and resources available specifically for the Indian community in different languages.
