Abstract

This study reports a therapy process introducing augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) strategies to a severe aphasic patient who lost the motivation to communicate. He could not fully utilize any single AAC strategy. By combining several AAC strategies step by step, he gradually became able to communicate successfully. At the same time his speech improved. The improvement was also seen in his ADL and QOL.
