Communication strategies such as repair strategies can be used to repair communication breakdowns (Tye-Murray, 2008).
EBP: When the individual uses a repair strategy after a communication breakdown it allows the communication partner to repeat verbatim or restructure their statement allowing the individual to more than likely understand the message (Tye-Murray, 2008).
Goal: In 6 months, the participant, will use specific and/or nonspecific repair strategies to repair communication breakdown in 4/5 daily trials with 90% accuracy as measured by self, communication partner and/or SLP.

Activity Breakdown
Step 1: The clinician will discuss repair strategies and their importance with the participant and communication partner
Step 2: The clinician and communication partner will offer scenarios of broken spoken communication
Step 3: The participant will choose which strategy fits best to create a habit of natural communication repair
Hierarchy Cueing
Independently: The patient implements strategy during a scenario
Gestural Cue: The clinician provides a gestural cue that indicates certain strategy
Verbal Cue: The clinician reminds the patient about the strategy
Model: The clinician will model the communication repair strategy
