A speech pathologist can help with: ⭐ Improving communication skills - both spoken and written ⭐ Language development - enhancing vocabulary, grammar, comprehension, and expression ⭐ Fluency - where disfluency like stuttering exists ⭐ Articulation - helping to pronounce sounds correctly ⭐ Social skills development - such as conversation turn-taking and understanding social cues ⭐ Accent support - providing techniques to modify accents or improve pronunciation By addressing communication challenges and providing tools for improvement, speech pathology can boost self-esteem and confidence. Feeling comfortable expressing themselves in their education setting, with friends and family, and eventually at work, empowers them to reach their full potential.

Cross-functional teams are a HUGE part of my job as a teacher and that surprises some people. In the last 2 weeks, I've worked on 3 cross-functional teams. These teams were working to create Individualized Education Plans (IEPs) for students with disabilities. Each team had professionals from at least 4 different areas, and the largest team had 12 members, all with different roles/ specialties/ focuses. We had collaboration between teachers, special education specialists, doctors, outside advocates, parents, speech language pathologists, psychologists, and therapists. Together we worked towards, and accomplished, the common goal of creating a comprehensive and individualized plan for each student. While the content and goal we were working on might be unique to education, the process of collaborating with different teams and professionals from other work areas is the same. Cross functional teams require respect, good communication, collaboration, planning, and flexibility, and teachers excel at it! #transitioningteachers #crossfunctionalteams #teamwork #teachers #collaboration

Our latest #ASHAInnovator is Gabriella Gizzo, an SLP in New York. Find out how Gabriella makes a difference in the CSD profession by getting to know the students she helps as a school-based SLP on a personal level, and why she believes other providers should do the same. What led you to become a CSD professional? “My younger brother was a late talker, so he received early intervention home care services. I got to see firsthand the impact of speech therapy. From that moment on, I knew I wanted to be a speech therapist to help other children communicate. “My motto is, ‘Everyone deserves a voice.’” How do you use innovation in your work? “I am a speech language pathologist at Lavelle School for the Blind. My students have visual and cognitive impairments. Therefore, I am constantly adapting different speech resources and materials to be applicable to this population. For example, I use tactile cue cards with actual objects rather than 2-D pictures.” Tell us about a time you’ve made an impact in your profession. “Currently, I am a school-based speech language pathologist. My caseload has students with visual and cognitive impairments. Through trial and error, I learned that one of my students responds well to music. Therefore, I started singing directions or phrases and having this student fill in the blank to expand his verbal language skills. This personal impact shows how important it is for providers to get to know their students on a personal level.” ________________________ The ASHA Innovator initiative is led by ASHA’s 2023 Board of Directors President Dr. Robert M. Augustine, PhD, CCC-SLP. Answers submitted by ASHA Innovators are presented in their own words and may not necessarily represent ASHA or its views. #ASHAInnovator

How frustrating it is to be an SLP in almost all settings with fluctuating pay and work! There are an immense amount of job opportunities for Speech Language Pathologists. That's the good news. The bad news, almost every job in all settings, even if offered as "full time", fluctuates with hours and pay. This makes being an SLP a challenge for a single parent, single income household. It also is incredibly frustrating to offer 20+ years of experience after countless clinical hours and 2 degrees later, only to find it's almost impossible to find consistent pay without fluctuations. What can we as professionals do about this? Has anyone else experienced these frustrations over the years?

One of the most common questions that speech and language pathologists hear from concerned parents is, “How many words should my child be using at this age?” As our children grow and develop, there are particular communication milestones that parents and caregivers can watch for. These important communication milestones help us know how each child is developing. Below, we go over the specific speech and language milestones expected for each age. When discussing milestones and development in children, it is always important to note that all children develop skills at different paces and in varying orders. If a child hasn’t met one of the milestones by that particular age, it doesn’t necessarily mean that the child has a speech or language delay. If, however, you are concerned about the development of your child’s communication skills, it is important to seek the help and support of a speech and language pathologist as soon as possible. Get your child started with speech therapy by scheduling your free introductory call today! 🔗https://lnkd.in/eVrsyRQt

Our speech pathologists had a productive discussion in our group clinical supervision session today on involving parents in therapy sessions! While we see clients for about an hour at a time, parents spend countless hours with their children each week. By supporting parents to implement our strategies at home, we significantly enhance client outcomes. Our external clinical mentor guided our team discussion, sharing strategies to educate parents and adjust their expectations of therapy. It's not just about therapist-child communication; it's about teaching parents to foster language development through play and in everyday routines and environments. Research proves that parent-led interventions are most effective for enhancing children's communication skills. Discussing this as a team helps our speech pathologists feel empowered to apply these methods with their clients and problem solve as a group any existing barriers in being able to implement this evidence-based approach to come up with solutions to go and try in their practice. #speechpathology #teamwork #clientoutcomes #languagedevelopment

SLPs, are you using a lesson plan yet? If not, you should! A lesson plan keeps therapy focused, organized, consistent, and tailored to individual needs. While it takes effort to create, it makes your job easier in the long run! Here are some tips: 💡 Start with evaluations: Assess communication strengths and weaknesses using tests, assessments, observations, and interviews. 💡 Set clear goals: Define measurable, relevant goals based on areas needing improvement, like boosting vocabulary for expressive language struggles. 💡 Choose evidence-based activities: Select strategies backed by research for effective communication improvement. 💡 Sequence smartly: Match activities to skill levels and gradually increase complexity as progress is made. Looking for other ways you can improve as a speech pathologist?
