Cultural Sensitivity and Responsiveness in Neurorehabilitation: A Personalized Approach for Speech-Language Pathologists is a groundbreaking and transformative resource for designing quality and equitable neurorehabilitation care for individuals from diverse communities. Material coverage is comprehensive, and chapters are user-friendly for speech-language pathologists (SLP) and SLP students alike. Case presentations are provided to demonstrate best practices. As our world becomes increasingly more diverse, it is imperative for SLPs to be knowledgeable about and experienced with foundational information relating to diversity, equity, inclusion, implicit bias, intersectionality, and SLP best practices for cases from culturally and linguistically diverse communities. The text culminates with an insightful epilogue featuring people from diverse communities from around the world who have neurogenic communication, cognitive, and swallowing disorders, and who share information about what they would like neurorehabilitation specialists to know. The book is organized into seven sections:Part I: Introduction to Personalized Care sets the stage by introducing the concept of multicultural neurogenics and personalized care. Chapters delve into topics like implicit bias, interprofessional collaboration, and the tools clinicians need for effective case management when working with diverse populations. Part II: Building a Foundation for Neurorehabilitation in a Multicultural World: Personalization Personified provides practical guidance for SLPs. It covers the preparation for case contact, working with interpreters and translators, and the assessment and management of speech, language, cognitive, and swallowing issues in culturally and linguistically diverse populations. Part III: Specialty Neurogenics Chapters offers in-depth knowledge on various neurogenic conditions such as aphasia, traumatic brain injury, right hemisphere brain damage, the dementias, dysarthrias, and dysphagia within a cultural context. Part IV: A Sampling of Information About U.S. Census Bureau Racial/Ethnic Groups delves into the unique cultural and communication factors related to various racial and ethnic groups in the United States, including Blacks, Hispanics, Chinese and Asian Americans, American Indians and Alaska Natives, and White Americans. Part V: Intersectionality examines the intersection of factors that create unique challenges in care, including ethical perspectives for serving LGBTQIA+ individuals, trauma-informed care for marginalized populations, and the cultural aspects of care for the Deaf community. Part VI: Contributions from Educators and a Look at Neurorehabilitation Care Trends within the U.S. provides insights from academics on diversity, equity, and inclusion in education, designing courses that promote DEI, and current trends in SLP neurorehabilitation. Part VII presents real-world cases with accompanying videos illustrating best practices in SLP neurorehabilitation care for diverse communities. These cases cover a wide range of scenarios, from collaboration between medical SLPs and interpreters to culturally adapted therapy for older adults and complex management considerations for stroke survivors from the Deaf community. This section ends with a chapter by visionaries from Asia, Africa, Europe, Oceania, South America, and North America sharing their insights on bridging the international diversity sensitivity and responsiveness gap, emphasizing the importance of cultural competence in a global context.
