Example of SCA – Gerry: Pre & Post SCA Training

Pre SCA^TM Training Example 

Watch and listen to this video clip of a young doctor who has not yet had Supported Conversation for Adults with Aphasia (SCA^TM) training talking to Gerry, a person with aphasia. 

Think about acknowledging and revealing competence as you watch and listen to this interaction. Think about ways you might help your patients with aphasia to communicate. 

Post SCA^TM Training Example 

Watch and listen to this video clip of the young doctor who has been trained in SCA^TM, using supported conversation techniques to communicate with Gerry, a person with aphasia. Let’s see what happens after the young doctor quickly learns how to use a few simple supported conversation techniques.
