Tool guide
Learn more about this tool
Use this background section to understand when the tool fits, how practitioners use it, and what to consider before sharing it with clients.
What It Captures
The tool captures life situations, priority status, restriction or desired-change notes where supported, unresolved items, date/context, and practitioner synthesis.
Relevant Limitations
The tool does not invent life-situation categories, assign scores, create impairment ratings, or generate intervention plans automatically.
Is this a generic life inventory?
No. It is a participation-situation mapping tool for aphasia care.
Who identifies the important life situations?
The person with aphasia identifies relevant life situations from their perspective, with practitioner facilitation as needed.
Can it be used for follow-up review?
Yes. Follow-up review can compare comparable profiles over time when life-situation labels remain stable enough.
What is saved from the demo?
The tool itself and selected reusable settings are saved. Fictional life situations, priorities, and sample history do not become real client data.
