Words We Lose: DEI, ASHA, and Patient Centered Practice
Manage episode 505825059 series 3241621
In this episode of What's Up Public Health, we sit down with Ingrid, a Speech Language Pathologist, to explore the profound impact of shifting diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) language within the field of speech-language pathology. With recent language changes from the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) to the accreditation, professionals are grappling with how these shifts influence not only their work but also the communities they serve.
Together, we unpack how words shape practice, professional identity, and patient trust—and what’s at stake when DEI language is removed from the conversation. From the clinician’s role as an advocate to the ripple effects on patient care, this episode dives deep into the power of language in advancing health equity.
