The Role of the Speech-Language Pathologist with Survivors of Traumatic Brain Injury from Intimate Partner Violence and Providers’ Knowledge of this Role

Intimate partner violence occurs globally at alarming rates. Many experience adverse health impacts such as traumatic brain injury. Healthcare providers do not know the role of the speech-language pathologist, or the rehabilitation needs of survivors.
Aims: This scoping review aims to identify speech-language pathology services for survivors of intimate partner violence with a resulting traumatic brain injury, and knowledge of healthcare providers on the rehabilitation needs of this population. A search was completed in May to October 2023, resulting in a total of 13 articles reviewed.
Main contributions: Speech-language pathologists lack knowledge to provide services to intimate partner violence survivors with a resulting traumatic brain injury. Healthcare providers that work with survivors are unaware of the rehabilitation needs of survivors.
Conclusions: Healthcare providers require knowledge of the needs of intimate partner violence survivors with a traumatic brain injury. Research regarding this population is warranted to meet their needs.
