Just a clip of Lord Bradley mentioning the need for Speech and Language Therapy in Liaison and Diversion in the Queen's speech! @RCSLTpolicy @rcslt @KGadhok

Does anybody know the long term exit strategy for the clapping thing?

Now you all know what a truly fab team we have here how about coming to work @SLSncl as a lecturer in our adult acquired group? Join us & Dr Julie Morris, Dr Janet Webster, Dr Christos Salis @slt_fi jobs.ncl.ac.uk/job/Newcastle-… 😀please retweet far & wide 😀

@JenMurphySLT @JacquiLearoyd I definitely find it equally as useful to know others' styles, it can help me rationalise some of my own traits/reactions 🙈

@JacquiLearoyd @SLTclare Ah I’m an ENFJ too 😊 I found it almost freaky reading all the characteristics, a bit like they’d been stalking me! Really interesting to reflect on... and especially interesting to look at all the other combinations to understand how others lead

Any ISFJ's in the room? I am feeling this 🙈👀

@GeorgiaSLT @laurabraithslt No I think you're right. I re-shared as was reflecting on my 'style' and that I'm very aware the current challenges are really shining a spotlight on my weak spots!

@VickyJervis You can vouch for my ISFJ-ness- the strengths and most definitely the flaws 🙈😂

@SLTclare ISTJ here sadly

@SLT_Kimu76 🙌🙌🙌

@GeorgiaSLT It's so accurate! google.com/amp/s/www.busi…

@autism_by @KarenScorerOT I will DM you my work email, I'm not fancy enough to have a website! 😅

@SLTclare @KarenScorerOT Yeah likewise. As you can see I have written a book on this and am writing no.2. Do you have a website or email? As this has popped up on my radar and I feel I may need to include it now.

#mySLTday pleased to get request from police directly for SLT assessment for someone currently under investigation. They valued a previous report received for someone else & got in touch. Usually its L&D practitioner that recognises need/refers on. Slow but significant progress

@autism_by @KarenScorerOT Some more generic guidance on autism often, for example understanding engagement style such as someone who may seem evasive or uncooperative when they need a more direct style of communication. Hard to explain my job on twitter!!

@autism_by @KarenScorerOT There's only one of me covering entire force area so not always possible to see in custody. It's not related to fitness to plead as that lies with psychiatry. This is more about how q's may need to be adapted, vocabulary levels, reducing demands on expressive lang etc.

@autism_by @KarenScorerOT sometimes it's pre interview, other times it's after release and RUI. Typically the nurses complete their mental health assessment and screen for language and communication needs then refer onto me if needed

@autism_by @KarenScorerOT I don't directly support as an AA or intermediary would but I write reports that provide detail on DPs level of understanding/expressive skills and make recommendations.

@SLT_Kimu76 @MMUSpeechSoc And a fellow MMU grad 🙃😁

@EllaPeaSpeechie Trusts I have worked for use values based interviewing. Research the trust's core values/mission statement and think about how you can contribute to delivery of these. It's good to have examples from your own experience that demonstrate your own values not just skill/knowledge

Advice for Band 5 SLT interviews please? 😇 Never been so anxious for an interview, I think it's because this could be the first step of a lifelong career! Please share your thoughts, experiences and advice.

@JonRoustonSLT @DrHayeLo My previous trust had "band 7 meetings". That's not a reason for a meeting 🙄

Article on reframing vulnerability in police custody online @SLS_Journal: bit.ly/2T3OpCC 5 yrs to write/rewrite/refine w/ A LOT of feedback A HUGE thx to those who showed me kindness & patience - without you, this paper would still be a half-baked draft on a USB🙏🙏🙏
