An SLP’s role in safety will vary with every situation, but the first step will always involve the evaluation of a client’s cognitive function to determine the best course of treatment. Older adults with cognitive impairment are twice as likely to fall than older adults with normal cognition. Detecting cognitive impairment helps SLPs identify those who are at higher risk for falling.
Cognition is referring to the mental processes involved in gaining knowledge and comprehension. SLPs can evaluate cognitive function through structured observations, interviews, and standardized assessments. Assessment results reveal both deficits and strengths, this information will help them design a course of treatment when appropriate. The goal in identifying deficits is not to reduce the client’s independence, but rather to establish interventions that will allow the client to enhance their independence and safety. It is very common for an SLP to collaborate with physical therapists and/or occupational therapists to help a client further improve their safety and independence.
Close friends and family are commonly the first to notice cognitive problems in their loved ones. Some common signs that someone might be having problems with cognition are:
SLPs can help clients modify their daily activities so that they’re easier to perform and can make recommendations for adapting a client’s environment for safety. SLP can also help to improve one’s ability to remember. They do this by instructing clients in specific exercises for enhancing memory, problem-solving skills, attention, and perception. Their programs can be designed for the client to do at home, and they can also provide training to caregivers.

To help improve safety, it’s critical that cognitive impairments are identified in order to implement the most appropriate strategies. SLPs use learning tools such as errorless learning, spaced retrieval training, and vanishing cues to help their clients enhance cognitive function, improve safety, and reduce fall risk.
