My name is Katie Mohan, and I am a student studying for my Bachelor's Degree in Clinical Speech and Language Studies at Trinity College Dublin. I am conducting a piece of research about the experiences of SLTs in helping in the assessment of decision-making capacity with individuals with communication difficulties in Ireland under the supervision of Katie Burke. This research is a short survey (approx. 8 minutes) that will capture SLT’s experiences working with adults with communication difficulties in Ireland. I am conducting this study to help understand what role SLTs are currently playing in helping assess decision-making capacity with individuals with communication differences and investigate if their unique skillset is being utilised to ensure autonomy amongst this particular group.
Please do not hesitate to contact me, or my supervisor (KABURKE@tcd.ie) if you have any questions.
