Episode 5: In-line Speaking Valves for Ventilator Patients with Sydney Parriott, MS CCC-SLP Apr 05, 2019

Show notes

Sydney discusses the importance of implementing in-line speaking valves for patients on a ventilator as part of the weaning process. In-line speaking valves also serve as an opportunity for chronically ventilated patients to use their voice. In part 1 of a two-part series, Sydney compares the implementation of in-line speaking valves in her experiences with an LTAC and an acute hospital. Sydney is a fount of information and your brain will feel 10x bigger after listening to her discuss the ins and outs of in-line speaking valves.

Episode 4: Eval & Treatment with the Trach & Vent Population in LTACs with Jen Hurst MS, CCC-SLP Mar 31, 2019

Show notes

The conclusion of the discussion with Leigh Ann Porter and Jen Hurst on the trach and vent population takes us through typical evaluation and treatment steps. Throughout part 1 and 2 of our discussion, a theme emerged…. collaboration. It became apparent to me that when working with medically fragile patients, coordinating your efforts with stakeholders is paramount. Discuss your plan of care with the dietician, the pulmonologist, the respiratory therapist, the nurse. Everyone needs to be on the same page and the best way to do that is in front of that person - having a face to face discussion.

Episode 3: Finding Your Feet with the Trach & Vent Population in LTACs with Jen Hurst MS, CCC-SLP Mar 28, 2019

Show notes

In this week's episode, Leigh Ann Porter sits down with Jen Hurst MS, CCC-SLP to discuss her experience working in an LTAC (long term acute care hospital) with trach and vent patients. We cover a wide range of topics including how Jen landed in this setting, who trained her to work with this population, and the nuances of LTAC. We also discuss the importance of being prepared to care for patients considering hospice care and are making that transition to end of life care.

What’s great about sitting down with Jen is that she doesn’t hold back, she’s honest, and will tell it like it is. We hope you enjoy listening along to our conversation that sheds some light on the LTAC setting, and the trach & vent population. Stay tuned for episode two - the conclusion of our discussion that focuses on the nuts and bolts of evaluation and treatment for trach and vent patients.
