Resources for stroke researchers
Developed by the Young Stroke Service project, these resources can assist stroke researchers to include people with communication support needs in research.
Communications Access and Inclusion Guideline
This guide provides practical information to help improve communication access, which can support people with aphasia and other communication disabilities. The guide includes:
- an interactions checklist
- an environment checklist
- a document checklist.
The principles and resources can help improve access and inclusion for all people with lived experience of stroke.
Icon Suite for Research Information Sheets and Consent Forms
Designed to make documents more accessible, the suite contains 78 colour and greyscale icons for use in research information sheets and consent forms. The icons were developed by a team that included people with lived experience of stroke and aphasia, speech pathologists, and a graphic designer.
