Speech-Language Pathology in Palliative Care – Special Interest Group
editIntroduction
editSpeech-Language Pathology (SLP) in Palliative Care (PalCare) is a new and developing area of specialty which aims to provide appropriate SLP practice within palliative and end-of-life care services. While the profession of speech-language pathology/speech therapy has been in existence since the turn of the 20th Century, and palliative care has been practiced for centuries (in one form or another), nevertheless, the combination of the two disciplinary areas intersecting has often been intermittent and highly dependent upon a specific institutional context, rather than being systematically endorsed by any government regulations or professional association clinical practice guidelines (CPGs).
SLP-PalCare Focus
editSpeech-Language Pathology in Palliative Care Special Interest Group has a primary focus upon ten major areas in order to support SLPs in Palliative Care and redress the lack of SLP CPGs in Palliative Care:Chahda et al (2020)
- Encouraging, developing and/or conducting ongoing research and creating resources for SLPs working in Palliative Care.
- Educating health professions about the role of SLPs in PalCare.
- Establishing referral procedures for SLP intervention within PalCare.
- Integrating PalCare within SLP tertiary education.
- Promoting the education, consultation, supervision and mentoring of SLPs new to PalCare.
- Incorporating SLP observations and interventions into the overall multi-disciplinary/palliative care team goals.
- Focussing PalCare assessment and therapy to include both cognitive-communication and swallowing interventions.
- Integration of SLPs as a part of a practical, consultative and holistic PalCare approach.
- Encouraging professional self-care consideration for SLPs working in PalCare.
- The development of uniform SLP-PalCare CPGs
Research and Future Development
editBased upon the findings of an increasing number of researchers [for example see the reviews of Chahda et al (2017) and Krikheli et al (2018) there is clearly a need for further research and increased scope of practice accompanied by the development of SLP clinical practice guidelines so as to enhance the multidisciplinary and holistic collaboration of SLPs within Palliative Care / End of LIfe Care contexts.
