To tie-up Better Hearing & Speech Month #BHSM, the clinicians were asked to share why they LOVE being speech-language pathologists. Hailey said, "I have so much fun working with communication in a variety of areas and am always smiling, laughing, and learning with my clients!" Julia said, "I walk out with a smile....EVERYDAY!" Shawna said, "I help families and children every day with my knowledge, it's such a rewarding field!" Joleen said, "I get to work with kids and think creatively about how to best help them!" Amanda said, "Every day is fulfilling, and every day makes a difference!" There is so much truth in these statements. May is time for us to reflect and celebrate our profession!
The 10th annual free BHSM screening was a success again this year The clinicians screened a handful of children at STG. The families were able to find out if their children's speech, language, hearing, and fine-motor skills were age-appropriate or if a full-assessment was recommended. Community resources and explanations were provided to the families if needed. Special thanks to Silver State Hearing & Balance for joining us again to provide the hearing screenings.
Until next year...
