Episode 7: SLP life on the Inpatient Rehab Unit with Lauren Ball, MS, CCC-SLP - a podcast by Leigh Ann Porter, MA, CCC-SLP

In this episode, I sit down with Lauren Ball to discuss what life is like on an inpatient rehab unit for an SLP.  Because Lauren has also worked in Skilled Nursing (SNF), she’s able to compare the two settings and discuss how patients qualify for inpatient rehab vs. SNF when they are discharged from the hospital. Lauren covers all the facets of this unique setting and how she generates materials for therapy, "it depends on each patient, what’s important to them.” Lauren’s guiding principle for planning therapy sessions is to consider “what do they need to be able to do at home” and balances that with feedback from the patient about their priorities for recovery. Music: Toast - Outside
