You’ve heard “qualified” SLP….
You’ve heard “seasoned” SLP…
But what does it mean to be an “effective” SLP, particularly in the medical space?The truth is: as a medical SLP, you have more power over your productivity than you think.Speech-language pathologist, clinical mentor, and rehabilitation program development specialist, Lysa Johnson, returns to the Swallow Your Pride podcast to join Theresa in discussing a word not too many medical SLPs enjoy: productivity.The pair define, dissect, and discuss what productivity means and how to better control it (instead of letting IT control YOU). So, let’s figure out what productivity means for you, your facility, and maybe even the future of speech pathology.Remember, defining productivity isn’t just about numbers; it’s about setting the stage for change. Whether it’s redefining productivity or just finding better ways to measure success, let’s do it together, one conversation at a time.
