Acute Speech and Language Therapist in Bristol. Interests in brains, traches, PDOC and big MDT working! Old account hacked - starting afreshπππΌ
#AHPday2024 Proud to show the role of SLT in ICU today - a member of the @NorthBristolNHS executive team saw trache patients with me 1) supporting communication with a mental health team review and 2) reviewing responses and laryngeal weaning with our phenomenal physios #SLT
We are hoping to host a critical care study day at GSTT, aimed at SLTs. We want to tailor this to what SLTs would like to get out of the day. Please consider circulating this survey to your members colleaguesπ @CEN_AAD@RCSLTTracheCEN@FEESVFCEN@RCSLTsurveymonkey.com/r/HMRKNQK
**ADVICE PLEASE!** I shadowed the wonderful Southmead ICU Follow up clinic this week - next week are planning to capture any unmet need associated with SLTs not routinely attending. Do any other ICU SLTs attend follow up clinics? Please get in contact if you do! #SLTinICU#SLT
My first week in Southmead ICU team is complete! Highlights include an extremely welcoming physio team, scoping in vocal cord clinic, a tiny tiny introduction to ventilator weaning and being supported by the fabulous SLT team. Next week is looking busyβ¦ very exciting! π #SLT
