Cognitive- Linguistic Tx: How do you address it in your setting?

I enjoy working with patient's on cognitive retraining, and recently have received a new book by Claudia Allen, as well as the Allen Cognitive Level Screen. Although the materials are geared toward Occupational Therapists (makes sense; Claudia Allen is an OT!), I find her model extremely helpful.

How do address cognitive impairments in your facility/ work setting? Do you collaborate with Occupational Therapists?

I am constantly striving to educate colleagues and staff about our scope of practice as SLPs in skilled nursing facilities. Yes, we do more than "feed people".
