This week on the All About Audiology podcast:
* 3:30 – Shadowing a trained professional, within a field of interest, can give you an inside look into the field and allow you to decide if such a field might be suitable for you.
* 7:00 – Students, within the SLP field, who are unsure what they want to specialize in can figure out their exact path as time goes on. One does not even have to technically specialize in anything and can be a generalist.
* 10:00 – For younger clients, in-person therapy is preferred due to the heavy focus on play-based therapy. Although in-person therapy is mainly preferred, Zoom may be a better fit for older children and adults.
* 12:00 – Children with Autism can benefit from working with a SLP on skills such as receptive language, pragmatics, social language, social skills and non-verbal cues.
* 15:00 – It is important to keep the parents of a younger client in the loop to help them understand what the therapist and their child is working on
* 17:00 – Working on accent modification, or accent reduction, skills allows one to work on their speech and language use with a goal of allowing one to be more intelligible to others
* 23:00 – Working with patients of all ages can make you more marketable as a professional
