310 – No Longer the Afterthought: Developing a HNC program and funding for specialized training


Listen Later

Raise your hand if you’ve ever received orders to see a patient with head and neck cancer AFTER they’ve started (or completed) radiation and/or surgery.

A million times yes.

It’s one of those common cases where speech-language pathology is an afterthought.

But in reality, we should be brought into the discussion before any treatment begins!

Katie Moore is all too familiar with this, which is why she passionately advocated for a head and neck cancer program in her department AND for specialized training to address complex impairments (like post-radiation fibrosis and lymphedema.)

Tune in to this week’s episode of The Swallow Your Pride Podcast to hear how Katie implemented a new program and rallied for support for SLPs to achieve the level of training they deserve.

Oh, and get ready to feel a surge of inspiration!
