Investigating the Competency for Evaluation and Treatment of Dysphagia with Ed Bice

Guest: Ed Bice, MEd., CCC-SLP - Have you ever taken a course and thought, “Wow! Yes! This is what my patients need!” and then felt a little embarrassed at how you were previously treating their dysphagia deficits? Why do we have those dysphagia competency concerns, to begin with? If you have ever asked the “why,” then join Michelle and Ed as they explore the limitations in professional preparedness. Ed walks us through how limitations in academic coursework (even down to textbook selection) impact professional preparedness for clinical competency but then offers functional solutions to remedy the situation.
