Van Stormbroek’s report states that it’s vitally important to novice SLTs (speech language therapist) to be adequately prepared during the academic year. That is linked to common situation when students cannot avoid practicing in under-resourced settings.
Speech language therapists meet with difficulties, feeling lack of confidence, when they need to make decisions in adult dysphagia independently.
The author of the article says that there are potential solutions. It is needed higher education institutions to provide mentorship and other learning opportunities.
Stormbroek underlines that the solution will require creative collaboration by the Department of Health and Department of Higher Education. It can help starting to answer the call for transformation of all sorts of practices within the profession.
@SimpleSam I'm really grateful for correction of this piece of writing. I'm aslo struggling with this place "SLTs (speech language therapist) to be adequately prepared". Later I changed "are adequately prepared" to "to be adequately prepared". Am I right?
The XYZ report underscores the importance for the new generation of SLTs [ who are about to enter the profession ] to receive the proper training during the academic year.
The report came out in response to a common situation encountered by SLT professionals who need to provide their services to members of underserved and disenfranchised communities.
It sounds great! Thanks:)
The order in the first sentence could be rearranged though: . . The report underscores the importance OF (receiving proper training) FOR (the new generation of SLTs) -- depending on what you want to emphasize
It's really helpful feedback.
Great work, Anna!
