Objective

Participants in this study will be asked to complete 2-4 sessions in which their memory and thinking abilities will be tested (2 hours each).

They will be working on this program at home for 40 min a day, 5 days a week, for 4 weeks. During this time, they will meet with a speech therapist three times per week, at least one meeting per week will be in person at Shirley Ryan 香港六合彩即时开奖.
