Sorry for the delay in responding Jeremy (couldn't remember if I had).
Just wanted to check whether you had seen the AT Forum draft report on AT
Service Standards on the FAST website: http://www.fastuk.org/atforum-
standards.php
As you would guess, very few standards / guidelines in the area of AAC.
RCSLT have some professional practice guidance, the West Midland's Rehab
Centre have the most thorough documents but these are care pathway
documents and so particularly relevant to their local situation.
The Forum's report is quite useful in setting the overall context and also
in confirming your suspicions that there is very little out there. If you
come across anything useful in this area (or indeed if anyone is aware of
any AT service standards which are not currently included in the report)
please let us know.
Cheers.
