Ready to revolutionize your understanding of speech-language therapy and hearing healthcare? Join us as we sit down with Nell Rosenberg, the National Director of Teleservices at Clarke Schools for Hearing and Speech. Nell shares her compelling journey to becoming a speech-language pathologist, driven by her passion for working with children and deepened by her studies in human development, special education, and communication sciences and disorders. She recounts her transformative externship at Clarke Jacksonville, an experience that ignited her dedication to auditory verbal therapy. Learn about the storied 150-year history of Clarke Schools and their innovative approach to teaching children who are deaf or hard of hearing to listen, speak, and read using advanced hearing technology. Nell also sheds light on the evolution of Clarke’s services, which have grown from a residential program to include campus-based, mainstream, and teleservices available both nationally and internationally.
Curious about the game-changing role telehealth is playing in hearing and speech therapy? This episode tackles the massive shift towards teleservices catalyzed by the COVID-19 pandemic. We discuss the growing acceptance of video conferencing, improved internet accessibility, and the legislative changes required to make telehealth a sustainable option. Learn about the advocacy efforts by organizations like ASHA pushing for interstate compacts and reciprocity laws. Nell also reveals some surprising benefits of telehealth, such as overcoming geographical barriers and enhancing caregiver participation, supported by extensive data and research from Clarke Schools. Don’t miss next week’s episode, where we'll delve deeper into the telehealth benefits for the hearing impaired.
