Long term goals
What are the main overall goals you want to accomplish with your client?
You determine these by completing all steps of the evaluation so you have
the complete picture of the client’s strengths, areas for growth, and
functional communication needs.
You work with the client to determine what these long term goals might be.
◦ Examples
◦ In order to communicate effectively at work . . .
◦ In order to answer an email from his grandson . . .
◦ In order to tell her husband if she is feeling pain . . .
1. Who? – name the person(s) who will
complete the goal
2. What? – behavior that can be observed
as a step toward the long-term goal (verb)
Components to
short term goals
3. Where, when, how, with whom? – tools
involved, cue, models, conditions. or locations
4. How well? – quantity, quality, speed,
accuracy level
5. When? – number of sessions, days, or
weeks

{HOW/WHERE} {HOW WELL} FOR {HOW LONG}

Setting Goals
Goals that are not functional for the individual clients are not
worth addressing.
Set goals that will improve the patient’s quality of life (QOL).
Start by determining LTG(s).
Then work backwards by breaking that into smaller steps.
Depending on where you work (university clinic, medical or school
setting) – goals can be written differently.
Our version involves a non-detailed LTG but in many facilities you
will write them with allof the components we covered for STGs.
Client 1:
Mr. Booth presents with a moderate Broca’s aphasia characterized by non-fluent,
telegraphic, agrammatic speech with some difficulty recognizing errors of grammar,
significant word finding difficulty, and. poor repetition.
Add three sentences to the above case description. What you add should be different than
what is there but should also fit the DX of this client.
1. Please write three goals for your client.
One goal should address part of the information provided by your
instructor.
Two goals should address the portions you added.
2. Please explain as if to me (or to another speech pathologist) the reason for each
goal. (1-2 sentences)
3. Please explain as if to your client the reason for each goal. (1-2 sentences)
4. For one goal, write three more goals that raise the level of difficulty for your
client in a three different ways.
Goal Assignment #2

severe Wernicke’s aphasia. His primary concerns, and those of his wife and children, are

production errors.
