samedi 26 juin 2021 • Durée 01:00:47

Guest: Dr. Raquel Garcia - As SLPs, it is so important that we maintain a spirit of continual learning, and today's guest, Dr. Raquel Garcia, is an exemplary example of a life-long learner.

Episode 7: End of Life Care and Dysphagia

jeudi 24 juin 2021 • Durée 58:40

Guest: Caitlin Saxtein MS, CCC-SLP, BCSS, CBIS: For this episode of the Understanding Dysphagia Podcast, we are joined by Caitlin Saxtein to talk about end-of-life care and palliative care. Caitlin Saxtein MS, CCC-SLP, BCSS, CBIS is a medical speech-language pathologist currently working in the acute care setting and has experience in subacute, rehabilitation, outpatient, and home health. She also has an extensive background with East End Hospice, having volunteered with them for nearly 15 years. In our conversation, we talk with Caitlin about how she became passionate about end-of-life care during her many years of volunteering and what she has learned working in the field of
palliative care. Palliative care is sometimes assumed to mean end-of-life care, even among
some health workers, but this is not necessarily the case. Caitlin unpacks the term and
explains how palliative care is distinct from hospice care, describing palliative care as
specialized medical care for people living with a serious illness to improve the quality of life for
patients and their families. We discuss alternate means of nourishment and why feeding a
loved one who is ill is so significant for a family. Later, we discuss advance directives, outlining
what they are and how they impact your medical choices when you can no longer make them
yourself. We wrap by hearing from Caitlin about how she practices self-care, especially during
the COVID-19 pandemic. For all this and much more, join us today for a wonderful
conversation about Caitlin's experiences with palliative care!

Guest: Sarah Breshears, MA, CCC-SLP: Today we continue our special series in collaboration with the Dysphagia Outreach Project in honor of Dysphagia Awareness Month, this time to speak about strokes with Sarah Breshears.

track to becoming an SLP before chatting about how she got involved with DOP. From there, we
wind our way into the heavy topic of strokes, beginning with what happens to the brain when
somebody has one, the effects it can have on their life, and how to recognize early symptoms.
We also get into how strokes can result in dysphagia, and then move onto best practices for
intervention and recovery, where we highlight the necessity of PT and OT. Our conversation
covers the importance of instrumental assessment for dysphagia and the dangers of
recommending the chin tuck swallow wholesale as well. Before wrapping up, Sarah gives us all
her top tips for lowering the risk factors for strokes, so be sure to listen along with us today and

Episode 5: Pediatric Feeding Disorders

jeudi 17 juin 2021 • Durée 01:09:01

Guest: Kristen West, MS, CCC-SLP - Everything is connected within the realm of SLP; nutrition, education, family dynamics, environmental factors, to name but a few. Our guest today works at the intersection of all of these. Her name is Kristen West, and she is an expert on all things related to Pediatric Feeding Disorder (PFD). One in 37 children under five in the United States struggle with PFDs, and we are thrilled that there is soon to be an ICD 10 code that accurately captures PFDs for the first time. Alongside numerous other roles, Kristen is the Director of Education for the Dysphagia Outreach Project (DOP), and the work she is doing through this organization is what forms the basis of our conversation today. Kristen is passionate about equipping communities with the skills and resources they need in order to ensure the best possible outcomes for children with feeding and swallowing issues. The lack of continuity of care, overarching feeding programs, and funding, make this a difficult task, but Kristen is well prepared for the challenge. Kristen shares with us today what she has learned over many years about bridging the gap between knowledge and action, sharing resources, transition meetings, and the importance of getting everyone on board with the mission to help children who are struggling with PFD’s. Feeding is a paramount life skill, and the interventions that DOP is implementing, are changing lives!

From there, we discuss the rise of the role of HPV in the development of head and neck cancer in younger patients and the implications of this. We get into the signs and symptoms of head and neck cancer, common treatment forms used by oncologists, and how this differs from those used by an SLP.

Brooke helps us understand the lymphatic system and the role it plays in the body, and also weighs in on the condition of lymphedema and the role of myofascial release in treating it.

Advocacy and Understanding for ASHA’s Proposed Changes to the “2020 Certification Standards” Panel Discussion - First Bite

mercredi 18 juin 2025 • Durée 01:50:00

Expert Panel: Amy Hobek, PhD, CCC-SLP, Fé González Murray, EdD, CCC-SLP, Vishnu KK Nair, Archie Soelaeman, Betty Yu and Reem Khamis

Take ACTION HERE: Changes to 2020 certification standards feedback. Survey. (n.d.). https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/2020_Cert_Changes

This episode will be available for 0.1 ASHA CEU on July 2

Correction Note from Dr. Betty: “During the recording I referred to the executive order targeting associations with assets of $500 million or more. I thought ASHA met that criteria but actually ASHA’s net assets are around $174 million.”

In this episode, Michelle and Erin host an all start line up of colleagues from across the globe to discuss ASHA’s Proposed Changes to the “2020 Certification Standards” and the long-term ramifications that these changes could have for our profession. This conversation is timely in that there are only a matter of days, roughly 3 weeks or less, for audiologists and speech-language pathologists (including students) to write in and advocate to ASHA on whether the proposed changes to the 2020 Certification Standards should be accepted… changes that remove key words and language that were hard fought to obtain. Be informed that this conversation does address political rationale behind the changes and offer a plethora of resources for individuals to grow their knowledge regarding the long-term ramifications of these proposed changes… but it ends with resources on how to make your voice heard! So, come join the ladies of “First Bite” and ADVOCATE!
