The Speech Science Podcast

Michelle is live from the road this week and is calling in to the show.  Matt found out before the show that he is 1 hour short of getting an ACE award, continues to redesign his office, and has continued gardening.  In Michael’s area schools have been moving to virtual.  With this change in the status quo, Michael has been doing parent education and moving slowly back to the clinic.  Michelle tested positive for Covid-19 and was in quarantine.  But she has been cleared to continue her move to Kansas and she and her family have been cleared for recovery.        

On today’s show, we discuss Covid and the return to school’s affect on CFYs and Externships and what does therapy look like in the Covid era.  This week’s Informed SLP dives into the world of infant language.  We also look at our SSPOD Shoutouts and Due Process.  The ASHA Spotlight looks at the ASHA Youtube Channel. 

The Discord is up and ready for people to interact with the crew 24/7 with a new website, www.discord.speechsciencepodcast.com.

Michelle’s trip to Kansas was side-lined as she faces quarantine.  Michael has been working with students and their families to ensure language skills continue to generalize and he found a way to end up on the Golf Course.  Matt continues to work home health care and has found a new love for some clear liquors while he has been tested every 2 weeks for COVID.         

On today’s show, we discuss Houston medical students being asked to be SLPs, the tell tale signs in your voice of COVID, and the return to schools for SLPS.  This week’s Informed SLP Dr. Meredith Poore Harold stops by to talk about why we shouldn’t buy into the Headlines.  We also look at our SSPOD Shoutouts and Due Process.

SSPODSHOUTOUT

http://www.campalec.com/about

Speech Science Powered by: You!

Michael and Michelle have the week off, so Leigh Ann Porter, host of Speech Uncensored settles into the co-host chair this week with Matt.  Leigh Ann recounts her week in the clinical setting and the joy of seeing a patient returning to your caseload.  Matt’s home health caseload continues to rise which means his free time continues to decrease.  Matt and Leigh Ann discuss the tests they enjoy when working with adults.  In the middle of the show, Matt had to run down a mouse in his house!

On today’s show, we look at tools for dysphagia, the importance of counseling during therapy, and which states are failing IDEA.  This week’s Informed SLP looks at perceptual ratings for dysarthric speech.  We also look at our SSPOD Shoutouts and Due Process.  The ASHA spotlight looks at the ASHA Connect Conference.  

The Discord is up and ready for people to interact with the crew 24/7 with a new website, www.discord.speechsciencepodcast.com.

 ----more----

SSPOD Shoutout: Do you know an SLP who deserves a digital fist bump or shout out?  We want to know your #SSPODSHOUTOUT, which is recognition for someone doing something awesome somewhere.    Dr. Anthony Koutsoftas from Seton Hall University received a 1.4 million dollar federal grant for research in improving writing skills in special education. 

SSPOD Due Process:  Do you have a complaint or need to vent, then you want to participate in the #SSPODDUEPROCESS. 

Topic #1: With the rise of 3d printing companies have found ways to create new assistive tools for feeding therapy.  Obi a robot who can feed a patient to trays specially designed can help change our approach to feeding therapies.      

Topic #2: A majority of states are failing to meet the minimum of IDEA.  Why are schools failing?  Is it directly linked to funding and will it improve anytime soon?      

Topic #3: Counseling should be a bigger part of our therapy sessions, or so says a recent study.  Do you find yourself as an information counselor or one that helps identify our patients’ wants and needs?    

The Informed SLP: A downside to relying on perceptual ratings is that perceptual ratings alone don’t usually qualify a child for speech services or provide a normative benchmark (other than normal/abnormal). But the authors of this study have created age-specific norms and cut-off scores for perceptual ratings that can be used in dysarthria assessments of school-aged children.

ASHA Spotlight: The ASHA Connect Conference is up and online till July 20th.

Its episode 118, even if they keep calling it episode 117.  During this week’s show, they plan for a longer Fourth of July Weekend.  Michelle’s child turns two on the fourth this week as she wraps up her last few days before her move.  Michael looks forward to some social distancing family get togethers.  Matt talks about how he is terrible at using the holidays in his speech and language therapy and he will be attending a reverse parade.     

On today’s show, we discuss recent research showing why some words are easier to remember than others, Disney World has won a disability lawsuit, and how music impacts memory.  This week’s Informed SLP looks at tongue ties.  We also look at our SSPOD Shoutouts and Due Process.  The ASHA spotlight looks at what ASHA is doing to spotlight SLPs of color.

SSPOD Shoutout: Do you know an SLP who deserves a digital fist bump or shout out?  We want to know your #SSPODSHOUTOUT, which is recognition for someone doing something awesome somewhere.    Jennifer Jayme and those who got the Military Spouse Community page up and running for ASHA receive this week’s SSPOD Shoutout.     

SSPOD Due Process:  Do you have a complaint or need to vent, then you want to participate in the #SSPODDUEPROCESS. 

Topic #1: The national institute of heal looks at the frequency of vocabulary and why some are easier to remember.  If a word has a higher frequency will they recall it easier on a screener?  Does this impact the way and the vocabulary we target in therapy based on the patient?    

Topic #2: Disney previously changed the way they handled customers and guests with disabilities by issuing a return time instead of allowing the guest to go to the front of the line immediately.  A guest sued Disney, but a court found Disney to not be at fault.  The group talks about the impact of learning to wait and how this can help.      

Topic #3: Patriotic music may be linked to certain memories.  How does this translate into other areas of therapy? 

The Informed SLP: Talking Tongue Ties: You won’t find many hotter topics in our little corner of the world right now than tongue-ties AKA ankyloglossia AKA tethered oral tissues AKA a very short and/or tight sublingual frenulum that restricts lingual mobility.

ASHA Spotlight: ASHA is printing and spotlighting SLPs of color.

During this week’s show, the group practiced going live on Instagram.  Michael’s clinic has begun to open up to in person live therapy and he continues to balance the role teletherapy has on his current caseload as well.  Michelle continues to prep for leave to Kansas and looks to transition patients to new therapists.  Matt is now being tested every other week for Covid-19 as part of keeping the home health staff and patients safe. 

On today’s show, we discuss recent research comparing teletherapy to in person therapy and the role COVID-19 has in impacting future graduate school classes.  This week’s Informed SLP looks at the importance of timing for therapy.  We also look at our SSPOD Shoutouts and Due Process.  The ASHA spotlight looks at the ASHA online communities. Christina Ristuccia returns for the third time to discuss when to finally discharge a student when you have been working on /r/ for so long.  So how do you avoid the lifers?

Topic #2: COVID-19 has changed the way we have approached therapy and now it is changing the way schools plan their programs.  The University of Central Florida is creating a new class to target these new skills which include the proper use of PPE.

The show has been off the air for the past few weeks to allow for other voices to be heard on matters of significance.  We at Speech Science believe there is no room for racism and we will commit to do what we can to shed light and make changes in areas we can.  We condemn the murders of George Floyd and Breona Taylor and all those who are not named but are equally important.  We believe Black Lives Matter.    

During this week’s show, Matt has finished his Medicaid Billing and has stumbled upon the Harley Quinn show on the DC Universe App.  Michelle has returned to work and plans a move across the country to Kansas.  Michael has been educating himself and those around him about the impact of Black Lives Matter.  On Discord, you can interact directly with Matt, Michael, and Michelle.

On today’s show, we look at the yearly ASHA Elections results, making parents rescind their rights to waive liabilities, special education and the return in the fall, and ASHA’s response to Black Lives Matter and calls to end racism in our field. Also, is AAC another language?  What if this means we should be devoting upto 360 minutes per week to AAC development?  This week’s Informed SLP update, they look at the teach back method.  We also look at our SSPOD Shoutouts and Due Process.  The ASHA spotlight looks at the yearly ASHA Elections.  We also replace the Hot Take with a Hot Seat

SSPOD Shoutout: Do you know an SLP who deserves a digital fist bump or shout out?  We want to know your #SSPODSHOUTOUT, which is recognition for someone doing something awesome somewhere.  Martin Addison is this week’s SSPOD Shoutout.  Martin passed away due to complications from COVID. Martin served his patients and this field as a dysphagia expert working with COVID Positive patients.      

SSPOD Due Process:  Do you have a complaint or need to vent, then you want to participate in the #SSPODDUEPROCESS. 

Article #1: In New Jersey, a district has asked parents to rescind their educational rights before offering future educational services, but is this legal?    

Article #2: Should we be devoting more time to AAC as it could be considered a different language?  Foreign language students receive 360 minutes per week but why do AAC users only get 30? 

The Informed SLP: Remember playing the game telephone as a kid? You sat around in a circle and whispered a phrase until it got to the last person who then said it out loud, usually completely unrelated to the original message. But now it’s time to forget what you learned on the playground and say that message out loud to make sure your partner hasn’t got it twisted. In fact, we highly encourage it.

SSPOD Shoutout: Do you know an SLP who deserves a digital fist bump or shout out?  We want to know your #SSPODSHOUTOUT, which is recognition for someone doing something awesome somewhere.  Ohio University AuD Graduate Kyle Rodgers was selected as an Officer Candidate for the Health Services Collegiate Program Medical Service Corps. On Monday, April 20th, 2020, Kyle swore the Oath of Enlistment to the United States Navy.      

SSPOD Due Process:  Do you have a complaint or need to vent, then you want to participate in the #SSPODDUEPROCESS. 

Article #1:  Front-line workers put themselves on the line, what are businesses offering as a thank you?    

Article #2: Betsy Davos tells congress to keep special education law in place during the pandemic, do you agree? 

The Informed SLP: We’ve all been there…felt the sensation of something ‘going down the wrong way.’ In fact, it’s pretty easy to tell when it happens. But what about when food ‘sticks’ in a persons’ throat?

SSPOD Shoutout: Do you know an SLP who deserves a digital fist bump or shout out?  We want to know your #SSPODSHOUTOUT, which is recognition for someone doing something awesome somewhere.  This week Mai Ling Chan and Lucas Steuber worked together to create a flipbook communicator for Covid-19 patients on a ventilator.       

SSPOD Due Process:  Do you have a complaint or need to vent, then you want to participate in the #SSPODDUEPROCESS. 

Article #1:  Yearly ASHA Elections are happening, again!  Matt, Michael, and Michelle review the candidates for President of the Association and discuss who may be the best to lead the association.    

Article #2: How much data do you need?  Is it reliable?  The crew look at an article from Kiwi Speech about the role good data plays in therapy and how to take better data. 

Interview: Say It Right™, based in Savannah, Georgia, was founded in 1999 by Christine Ristuccia, M.S., C.C.C.-S.L.P., an experienced school-based speech-language pathologist.

Michael has been using teletherapy to continue to grow his private practice.  He has found merits in this new part of the field may keep it going after the quarantine is lifted.  Michelle has not been seeing clients because of the Covid-19 lockdown.  Matt and Michelle talk the trials and tribulations of navigating unemployment, at this time.  Michelle’s son continues to develop language and puts a new perspective on what we learned in a classroom.  Matt recounts doing Easter from a safe social distance, his first live tele-therapy session, and the impact of being with his kids 24/7 has had on him.   On Discord, you can interact directly with Matt, Michael, and Michelle and let them know if you are considering working in a travel position or how you are coping with the pandemic lock-down.  Ashley Hamlin from TherapyTravelers, a travel speech and language therapy company, sat down with Michelle to talk about the positives of setting your own location for a travel position. On today’s show we look at the importance of sleep on cognition and a new FDA certified Speech Therapy App. This week’s Informed SLP update, they look at the importance of minutes and why you may be spending twice the time needed.  We also look at our SSPOD Shoutouts and Due Process.  The ASHA spotlight looks at what ASHA is doing for us during this time of pandemic.  We also replace the Hot Take with a Hot Seat

SSPOD Shoutout: Do you know an SLP who deserves a digital fist bump or shout out?  We want to know your #SSPODSHOUTOUT, like Ruben Caceres Jr., who works for the Dallas Independent School District as a special education teacher and now teaches remotely from home after schools were closed to contain the spread of COVID-19.  Ruben took his bailout check and used it to create masks for his students.     

SSPOD Due Process:  Do you have a complaint or need to vent, then you want to participate in the #SSPODDUEPROCESS. 

Article #1:  Recent studies show the impact sleep has on brain.  What impact does it have on cognition, memory, and phonological development? 

Article #2: Constant Therapy is an app that was developed to help therapists monitor work that was done when the speech therapist was not there.  The app has been awarded a prestigious FDA award, but does it AI have a place in the new therapy realm?

Interview: Ashley Hamlin is the National School Recruiter at TherapyTravelers.  TherapyTravelers believes firmly that it takes a community to help to better the lives of special needs children, and they take seriously their responsibility to empower their incredible therapists, so that they can help all of their students to reach their full potential.  Ashley Hamlin talks with Michelle about what is expected with a travel position and how to find a good position. 

The Informed SLP: Researchers wanted to find out if the intensity of the dose within a single session affected outcomes.  The results show that its possible that you may be giving twice the amount of therapy than is needed.   

ASHA Spotlight: The crew recognizes ASHA’s live townhall chats.
