How Do We Even Treat Dysarthria?

Do oral and pharyngeal exercises help post-stroke dysarthria? Emily and Eva examine a recent review (Yunusova et al.), unpack why swallowing outcomes often show benefit while speech outcomes do not, discuss goal-writing pitfalls, and get into practical treatment. Talking about their own practice and how they address dysarthria treatment- because if we don't talk we can't learn from each other. Citations: Marzouqah R, Huynh A, Chen JL, Boulos MI, Yunusova Y.
