This episode features Jennifer Markowitz, she is a pediatric SLP in an outpatient setting in Washington, DC. In this episode, Jennifer shares how her interests have evolved over time (or developed to be more specific), what it was like to jump in and help in an acute inpatient adult setting during covid, and advice she gives to interns and new clinicians she mentors. Jennifer tells us a bit about where you can look to get a hospital placement for your CFY (Leadership Education in Neurodevelopmental and Related Disabilities (LEND) opportunities that focus on interdisciplinary approaches to care), and she shares some insight into what she looks for in externship/internship candidates!

As discussed in the episode, here is the link to learn more about LEND training! Another way to find specific fellowship positions is to type "LEND training hospitals" into google.
