Final chapters reflect on issues of professional practice and future challenges and opportunities towards enabling SLPs to advocate for innovative services on behalf of their patients.This book will be of interest to scholars and practitioners in speech-language pathology, as well as allied health care professionals and health managers looking to understand the importance of SLP in helping patients achieve holistic health.
