WHO ARE SPEECH PATHOLOGISTS?
Speech Pathologists are medical experts that deal with all aspects of communication/speaking and cognitive thinking as it relates to communication/speaking. Their functions are wide and varied. They diagnose social disorders, communication problems, swallowing problems, cognitive-communication problems, and any other issues surrounding communication/speaking.
These experts are known as SLPs in short or “Speech Language Pathologists” (or formerly “Speech Therapists”). They are usually classed medically in the same genre as Optometrists and Behavioral Analysts. They also work with Pediatricians and Psychologists in diagnosing treating autism in children.
(See our related articles on Gifts for Optometrists; Gifts for Pediatricians; and Gifts for Teenage Autistic Boy).
SLPs work in several sectors both in the public and private health sector, from public hospitals to private clinics and other health establishments. They work with both adults and children. The work that they do is deserving of appreciation because, without the work they do, a lot of people who have communication challenges would still be challenged and not communicate properly. And we all know how important it is to be able to communicate.
