Alongside demonstratable qualifications and expertise in this field, you should be enthusiastic, energetic and motivated.
Being dysphasia trained and experienced in the use of AAC aids and other forms of communication aids will enable you to identify our young people's needs, which are determined by the needs of the children, and work with your team and external contacts to source and implement equipment.
