- Abstract
The Clinical Protocol for Aphasia was created on the basis of international scientific research and presented to the professionals in this field at the First Congress of the Speech and Language Pathologists of Serbia. The Protocol, whose character is diagnostic-prognostic, is multidimensional in its structure containing five axes of assessment. Its greatest value is that it aims at realistic goal setting in the rehabilitation therapy of aphasia. Communication is the key to social participation and the objective of the rehabilitation of aphasia is a social goal, i.e., the optimization of communication between aphasia patientand their environment. The imperative of the protocol is interdisciplinarity, so one of the protocol outcomes is the aphasia team. The aphasia team is characterized by interdisciplinarity, functionality, flexibility and dynamism. One of the outcomes of the application of the Clinical Protocol for Aphasia is the choice of treatment: approach to leading disorder, functional approach, and social approach.
