This was such a meaningful presentation! Thank you so much for sharing your own experience. I think bringing the "person" back into the evaluation and therapy rather than such an exclusive focus on meeting goals, therapist expectations etc. is going in such a good direction. Thank you.

Great presentation! I really appreciate these courses where personal/professional storites are intertwined. The presenter was professional, knowledgeable, "full of teachable moments", empathetic and showcased the critical importance of SLPs' roles in allowing clients to participate/direct postive outcomes, appropriate therapy goals and best treatments.

Incredible CEU. I learned so much about the types of questions to ask my patients. Also, the level of vulnerability of her story reminded me a lot of Chanel Miller's "Know My Name". Great lessons learned all around - thank you!

Good information, well laid out. Her personal story is compelling and was well used as an example. I was struck by her response to a question, saying that sometimes the patient's goals are not the same as the goals of the family. I believe that might have been true of my late husband at some points in his journey, but he did not share that. I wish her well.

The perspective of the SLP as patient is invaluable. We can never truly understand a situation at a deep level without experiencing it ourselves. The list of questions is very valuable, and the fact that they can be expanded so easily. I like the message that we cannot blame the patient for being noncompliant or unsuccessful if we haven't done all we can to ensure their success.

The instructor’s personal story
by
Member
on
February 9, 2021
The instructor explained, that the narrative based interventions, were most effective with patients, since the health care provider, asked the patient, whatwas most important to them. Once the patient answered, the health care provider, could incorporate communication goals, that were most meaningful to the patient. Ex. One patient, was concerned about her spouse, on another floor of the hospital, so the speech-language pathologist, and the patient,spent the therapy session, writing a card to the patient's spouse, and made the therapy session, most meaningful to the patient, while incorporatinglanguage skills, (vocabulary, reading comprehension, and grammar) while writing the card, and then, delivered the card, to the spouse. Also, the health care provider, a speech-language pathologist, could be most empathetic, to cancer patients, since she was diagnosed, with a brain tumor,in her frontal lobe, had to have surgery, chemotherapy, and had a devastating prognosis, that she had only 3-5 years to live. Despite the devastating prognosis,she had hope, and was making every effort, to prove the prognosis wrong, and beat the cancer, and extend her life, as much as possible. She is a most inspirationalhealth care provider,( age 29-30), and reminds others, how precious, yet fragile, life can be. Her readers, realize, what a positive attitude, can make, to hopefully, with treatment, significantly improve the situation, with cancer in remission, (since she had the brain tumor, in her frontal lobe removed, with surgery),and have a full, happy, life.

Wow! This course really helped me see my patients' view of the therapy I provide in a way I've not been able to accomplish before! I love the idea of doing a chart review, and then using narrative interviewing to get that information with much more personal touch, and with a focus on what "matters to the patient". What a valuable course! This will absolutely make me a better clinician for my patients. Thanks Janelle for sharing your experience and knowledge!
