Clinical Methods and Practicum in Speech-Language Pathology - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

With major content updates and enhanced supporting online materials, the seventh edition of Clinical Methods and Practicum in Speech-Language Pathology remains an essential resource for students in speech-language pathology who are about to begin their clinical practicum. The text is a comprehensive source of information that will help establish clear expectations for both student clinicians and clinical supervisors. It is hoped that students who read this book prior to starting their clinical practicum will be better prepared to meet the exciting and yet often challenging task of providing ethical and effective services to children and adults with communication disorders. Readers will gain an understanding of the structure of different clinical practicum sites; principles of ethical practices; conduct, behavior, and competencies expected of them; justifiable expectations of their clinical supervisors; and the many fundamental principles of assessment and intervention across most disorders of communication. The book is divided into two sections: clinical practicum and clinical methods in speech-language pathology. These sections provide coverage of the structural and functional aspects of clinical practicum in a variety of settings. The author emphasizes that clinical practicum is an exciting learning experience. The students will understand what is expected of them in each setting and what they can expect from their clinical supervisors. An overview of treatment methods that apply across disorders is also included.
