The Miseducation of the SLP: Live on Season 3

DEI is a hot topic these last few decades and the question remains- Why does it matter? Ashanty and Ingrid continue to share the direction that DEI considerations serve ALL patients in this episode across race and diagnosis. Take a listen and take step towards clinical practice that is excellent!

Ingrid and Ashanty begin discussions on the importance of centering patient care especially for the marginalized. Do you identify as marginalized? Where have you needed to focus people's energy on function rather than on 'normal'? That's where the journey begins for successful therapy!

On today's episode, Ingrid takes on the role of interviewer as she asks Ashanty about her 'why' when it came to her particular style of intervention. This is a close view on what her example of patient centered practices that created the most functional experience for her students despite the burden of caseload overload!

Returning for another heavy hitting episode, Ashanty and Ingrid begin the journey of redefining EBP to center around the patient rather than the research. They also begin to introduce information from the international community and start digging into how to do the work in a qualitative manner rather than quantitative. Dive in!

When do you feel independent as an SLP and shed the imposter syndrome?‘When I don’t feel micromanaged’- Ashanty. When I outsmart the science with other science to make it patient centered’ - Ingrid. Can we all adopt diverse thinking and practices? Does DEI only belong to people who are considered diverse? As we ponder these considerations, we can break open the Cracker Jack box and come up with a new way of practicing in totality. What are your thoughts? Can anyone provide care to any type of patient no matter the background and focus the care on their goals? Good food for thought…
