How To Treat Broca's Aphasia

Join A Support Group

Broca's aphasia patients who join a support group can gain added emotional support as well as increased opportunities for a broader range of language opportunities. This may include a brain health group for direct support, but it can also be a knitting group, a book group, a pet group, or any organization that lets them divert their mind while practicing their language skills. The group needs to be aware of the patient's condition and be prepared to allow for their limits and needs. Sometimes a patient can even find a social group for Broca's aphasia patients. The group doesn't always need to be an aphasia support group to provide some social support. For instance, a fishing group can provide opportunities without pressure to produce a great deal of speech. Being out in nature can help a patient relax as well, and this reduces the stress that can interfere with brain recovery.
