Communication

Communication needs continue to change across the lifespan.

As we embrace new life situations, we use our communication skills in different ways. Our speech, language and social skills may be challenged as we tackle new experiences. As we get older, physical changes can start to affect communication. Being aware of what is important to us and how we use communication to fulfil everyday tasks, can help us think ahead and be prepared for what our communication needs may be in the future.
