She's currently in private practice in an acute hospital setting.

She is a certified compassion fatigue professional through the

I'm your host Teresa Richard.

I'm a board certified specialist in Swallowing and Swallowing disorders.

And I know firsthand how much confusing and conflicting information there is

out there about how we assess and treat swallowing disorders. This podcast is all

about bringing everyone together, getting on the same page,

being open to new ideas,

and using evidence-based treatment strategies

for our patients with dysphagia.

So let's get into it. Just a quick disclaimer that all statements and opinions expressed in this

episode do not reflect on the organizations associated with the

speakers and are their own opinions solely.

Hello there and welcome back.
