Intensive and Comprehensive Aphasia Program for Cantonese-speaking Chinese in Hong Kong
What is it about?
The Intensive and Comprehensive Aphasia Program is rooted in neuroplasticity and addresses a holistic treatment component to enhance patients' daily communication and participation. This study examines how the program is run in Hong Kong and evaluates its effectiveness and feasibility.
Why is it important?
This is the first Cantonese Chinese ICAP study, with details on the setup and implementation, especially on how to overcome the challenges of insufficient evidence-based aphasia practice in a language other than English. This study expands the research-based evidence for ICAPs and promotes future implementation in other languages.
