Objective: To investigate the experiences and perspectives of speech pathologists when delivering cognitive-communication therapy to adults following traumatic brain injury (TBI).
Methods: An explanatory sequential mixed methods design was used to explore the practices of speech pathologists working in community-based rehabilitation (CBR) settings. The first participant group completed an in-depth online survey, whilst the second group participated in an interview to discuss their processes and recommendations when managing adults following TBI.
Results: Participants highlighted the need for services to be client-centered and inclusive in their approaches to meet the rehabilitation needs of people following TBI in community-based settings. The key features identified to achieve this included utilizing a flexible service delivery approach, implementation of meaningful therapy, as well as inclusion of significant others.
Conclusions: These findings provide a snapshot of the current practices employed by a range of speech pathology services across Australia and New Zealand. Health professionals and rehabilitation service providers should consider the key factors highlighted by the participants when designing future CBR models of care for this client group.

Background: Menopause is a time of accelerated loss of physical function, illustrated by challenges to mobility, speed, strength, and performance of activities of daily living. Physical function is associated with cognitive function, but there are limited data exploring this association among older women. In a cohort of older adult women, we hypothesize better performance on measures of physical function will be associated with better cognitive performance.

Background: In recent years, the Chinese government has increased its support for the development of community-based psychiatric rehabilitation (CBPR) services and initiated pilot programs for government purchasing of CBPR services from non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in order to address the inadequacy of the government's own supply capacity of CBPR services. This study investigated how the NGOs in Shanghai perceived the challenges and opportunities for participating in the provision of government-purchased CBPR services.
