Q1: I think SLPs can make a contribution in a number of areas- speech &lang dvpmt, social communication, learning, play skills... #slpchat

@tuitree Love your twitter bio."I spend my days outsmarting 4 year olds. Some days are more successful than others." #slpchat

lewismal 28/Apr/2012 10:08:02 PM PDT
Q1 but I think my role changes depending on the needs of the client/family/significant others etc. #slpchat

speechieLO 28/Apr/2012 10:08:35 PM PDT
I also love @tuitree 's twitter bio. Some days, my job does seem to be about outsmarting small people. And losing at kids games! #slpchat

Q1 @speechieLO I only know 2 SLPs who do health promotion, rest in client work. #slpchat

Q1 #slpchat I agree with Lauren- role definitely adjusts according to needs and strengths of team around child

@lewismal I've done bits of health promotion while in clinical roles, love to do more... it's an important but often ignored role! #slpchat

speechieLO 28/Apr/2012 10:11:59 PM PDT
I think the role also includes education (for families, schools, community etc), which is a sort of merge with health promotion #slpchat

Reply RT Favorite

speechieLO 28/Apr/2012 10:12:55 PM PDT
Q1 Role is usually client focused rather than using knowledge to change community factors causing so many kids to have SL problems #slpchat

lewismal 28/Apr/2012 10:12:57 PM PDT
Who else is doing health promotion? #slpchat

Reply RT Favorite

lewismal 28/Apr/2012 10:13:32 PM PDT
@lewismal any idea why that is? my initial response is because that's what people/agencies are willing to pay us to do! #slpchat

speechieLO 28/Apr/2012 10:13:56 PM PDT
#slpchat I also think we play a key role in supporting our behaviour specialists. Our knowledge of the child's comm is impt in planning

I like work of Monash's Prof Pamela Snow-good population focus in some of it. #slpchat

@SLPChat #slpchat I believe we advocate for the child's communication especially when behavioural issues stem from a communication function

In some of my communities over 30% of prep kids score in bottom 10% of Aussie kids on lang domain of AEDI. #slpchat
