(Navigating Speech and Language Therapy)
by Rebekah Davies (Author)
There
is so much to consider in any clinical consultation: identifying the
individual is the one you expected, who is with the individual, which
therapy intervention, resources, signposting, referrals, being cued in
to responses for contextual information, evaluation and outcomes,
planning next steps … and this is all before you throw ‘virtual’ in the
mix!
This clinical companion presents 50
transferable, adaptable, practical and accessible chapters for speech
and language therapists and others working via remote consultations.
Divided into four sections, the book covers:
- The remote practitioner.
- The remote rules.
- Creating a digital tool kit.
- A remotely possible future.
Aimed
at students encountering their first remote consultations, newly
qualified clinicians with limited practical experience of virtual
clinics through to clinicians who are experienced in their own
specialities but now need to transfer those skills to remote ways of
delivery, this concise text will provide confidence and guidance for the
reader. It will also prove useful to clinicians beyond speech and
language as many of the skills and practical advice and guidance are
applicable in specialities across a range of settings, both public and
private, healthcare and education.
