On today's episode, we scratch the surface on variables beyond aspiration that impact dysphagia-related pneumonia in our patients. Our guest, Dr. John R. Ashford, Ph.D., brings a wealth of knowledge from his experience in clinical practice, academia, and research. Furthermore, we discuss lab values, education, life-long learning, and how SLPs can become more medically-focused in their patient care. Join us as Dr. Ashford provides valuable insights to help bridge the gap between research and practical clinical application.
“What I know doesn’t belong to me; what people know really doesn’t belong to them; we’re nothing but conduits; we simply are passing along what others have taught us, and we’ve made sense out of it.”
-Dr. John Ashford
