The main idea of rehabilitation is a multidisciplinary team collaboration. In my bachelor thesis I tried to highlight the team work of the clinical speech therapist and an occupational therapist in people with language disorders. The main objective was to determine how clo-sely these two professionals work and what is important for a person with aphasia.

Respondents to the ques-tionnaire often mentioned that the work of speech therapist and occupational therapist blends in some situations. However, it does not mean, they do the same tasks.

The end of the thesis highlights the importance of teamwork.
