You may have heard the words “aphasia” and “dysphagia” when supporting a loved one’s health journey and wondered what they mean and how they differ.

June is National Aphasia Awareness Month—a fitting time to highlight this communication disorder and contrast it with dysphagia, another disorder patients may face after injury or illness.

Aphasia affects a person’s ability to speak, read or write—although not necessarily their thinking. After a stroke or brain injury that damages the language centers in the brain, a patient may have trouble finding the right words, understanding what others say or comprehending text.

Dysphagia is the difficulty in swallowing, and can occur as a symptom of many different conditions, including brain and muscle disorders.

Clark Crist once helped MLB players like Kenny Lofton (Cleveland Guardians), Mike Leake (Seattle Mariners) and Albert Pujols (St. Louis Cardinals) sign their contracts. Then suddenly the former player, manager and Major League scout needed help himself. He suffered a massive stroke, which affected his ability to walk, feed and dress himself.

In addition to friends and former teammates like Terry Francona (The University of Arizona, Cincinnati Reds, Boston Red Sox), Barry Larkin (Cincinnati Reds) and Luis Gonzalez (Arizona Diamondbacks, Houston Astros), Clark needed a coach. Instead he found a team. The therapists at HonorHealth Rehabilitation Hospital helped Clark come home again.

Finding specialized care for your loved one with medically complex needs can be difficult, even overwhelming. At our critical illness recovery hospitals, we focus on five recovery areas, known as the Five Whys, which are vital to each patient’s journey toward independence.

These skills may seem simple but for those recovering from catastrophic illness or injury, they often need to relearn them. Our multidisciplinary team consists of pulmonologists (doctors who specialize in treating respiratory illnesses), respiratory therapists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, pharmacists, dietitians and nurses.

Each of the Five Whys is central to patient recovery, helping to identify opportunities for improvement in order to accelerate the ability to go home.

Many of our patients struggle to speak, swallow or think clearly when they transition to our care. They’re recovering from injury or illness and want to talk with a loved one, eat their favorite food and manage their daily activities.

Certified speech-language pathologists (SLPs) play an important role in making that happen. As part of a multi-disciplinary care team, SLPs diagnose communication and swallowing conditions and create individualized plans to address them.

For some patients, that may mean exercises to strengthen their tongue, lips and throat. For others, it might be activities to improve memory and problem solving—all with the goal of getting them back to their lives.

Caleb Utley, a 34-year-old restaurant server, enjoyed an active life with his fiancé and their two dogs. But a catastrophic vehicle accident changed everything. The incident left him with multiple traumatic wounds including a brain injury. He faced a long road to recovery. His first stop after the ICU was Select Specialty Hospital - Dallas Plano, a critical illness recovery hospital, where he continued to heal from his injuries. After meeting his goals, he transferred to Baylor Scott & White Institute for Rehabilitation - Frisco, to regain his mobility, communication skills and other abilities to return to the life he loved.

It is a myth that only older people can suffer a stroke. In fact, rates of stroke among younger adults are on the rise, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). In a study conducted from 2011-13 and from 2020-22, the prevalence of strokes in people ages 18 to 44 rose 14.6%, while those ages 45 to 64 rose 15.7%.

Though strokes remain most common in those who are 65 or older, they can occur at any age. The CDC report highlights a rise in obesity, physical inactivity, diabetes and high blood pressure as contributing to increased strokes among younger people. Despite the rise, there are steps younger adults can take to lower their chances of having a stroke now and in the future.

“How do I bring my loved one home from the hospital? I don’t feel ready.”

We often hear these words from caregivers prior to a patient’s discharge; the end of a hospital stay can be confusing, overwhelming and even, a little scary. That’s why we have a Care Partner Program.

CHET—Community, Healing, Education and Training—is an online destination built to support all our patients and their caregivers nationwide during their recovery journey. Hospital staff support and teach caregivers all aspects of care, based on the specific needs of each patient and their family.

During care partner training sessions, each caregiver has the opportunity to participate in physical, occupational, speech and recreational therapy.
