In this episode, we talk about creating holiday games and activities that are inclusive for individuals with aphasia. Genevieve Richardson, a speech-language pathologist, introduces the idea of engaging in games with an "aphasia buddy" to help individuals with aphasia participate in social activities, reducing feelings of isolation. Autumn, a team member with aphasia, shares her personal experiences and strategies for making holiday gatherings more inclusive. She emphasizes the importance of finding comfortable spaces and engaging in activities like puzzles to feel included without the pressure of direct conversation.

The episode explores various games that can be adapted for individuals with aphasia, focusing on fostering connection rather than competition. Genevieve and Autumn discuss the significance of creating a comfortable environment for playing games, suggesting quieter areas to enhance the experience. They emphasize the importance of flexibility with game rules and the need for patience and understanding from family members.

Top Takeaways:

  • Engage in games with an "aphasia buddy" to reduce feelings of isolation.

  • Create a supportive environment by modifying games for inclusivity.

  • Find comfortable spaces and activities to participate without pressure.

  • Be patient and understanding, allowing extra time for responses.

  • Plan ahead for gatherings to manage energy levels effectively.
