collecting communication samples

A

-very young clients: a play session with developmentally appropriate toys and a familiar person

A

any action taken by local, state, or federal officials to address a problem.

Q

PL 108-446 IDEA

24
Medicare
is administered by a federal agency called the centers for Medicare and medical services (CMS) for individuals who turn 65 years of age or those younger who have a qualifying disability.
25
Medicaid
Pay medical bills for persons of low socioeconomic status who have no other financial means to pay for medical care.
26
discharge summary/report
a written report of a client's cumulative progress from the initiation of therapy to his or her discharge
27
Long-term goals (LTG)
covers the full period of time that therapy intervention has been assigned
28
short-term goals (STG)
hierarchical small goals working towards LTG
29
Behavioral objective
do statement: identifies the action the client is to perform. the condition: identifies the situation in which the target behavior is to be performed. the criterion: specifies how well the target must be performed for the objective to be achieved.
30
Purposes of intervention
-eliminate the underlying cause of the disorder. -compensatory strategies to improve functional communication. -modify the disorder by teaching specific speech, language, cognitive, or swallowing skills that enable an individual to become more effective with their goal skill.
31
Normative approach
goals target age-appropriate norms
32
Continuum of naturalness
intervention activities vary in their degree of naturalness.
33
Clinician-directed (CD) approaches
clinician controls all aspects of the intervention
34
client-centered (CC) approach
approaches emphasize therapy in authentic settings. clinician follows client direction.
35
Indirect vs. direct service delivery
Direct- clinician works face to face with an individual patient or group of patients with clinical model. Indirect- Clinician works indirectly with patient by providing guidance and teaching to the clients family members and professional colleagues
36
Consultative/ collaborative model
When members of an intervention team work together to share responsibility for client outcomes or when clinician provides guidance by teaching to clients family members
37
Individual vs group therapy
Individual-Intense and one-to-one therapy session aimed at teaching a client a specific communication skill Group- Include two or more patients who are usually working on similar speech language skills or who need to practice the generalization of learned skills to additional communication partners
38
Multidisciplinary, interdisciplinary, transdisciplinary models
Multi- Each discipline conducts own assessment and develops discipline-specific goals. Each discipline has its own plan. (Works separate plans separate) Inter- Each discipline conducts own assessment but communicates with other disciplines regarding results. (Tests separate but plans together) Trans- Team members have an ongoing dialogue, sharing of information, knowledge and skills to develop and implement a single integrated service plan for the client. (Works together)
39
Define culturally and linguistically diverse client
a culturally and linguistically diverse client is an individual who comes from a home environment where a language other than your own is spoken and whose cultural values and background may differ from yourself
40
Define bilingualism, sequential and simultaneous learners
Bilingualism: individuals who speak more than one language Sequential learners: acquired one language after another simultaneous: speak both languages from birth
41
Who does IDEA (2004) mandate about a child’s native language
(PL 108-446): Ensures all children with disabilities have access to a free appropriate public education (FAPE) in a least restrictive environment (LRE)
42
The 8 testing guidelines to decrease the possibility of misdiagnosis of children who are culturally or linguistically diverse
1. Do not use norm-referenced tests only. 2. Do not use only a language sample to qualify someone for services. 3. Do not use multiple assessments in order to get low scores so that someone will be qualified for services. 4. Do not use translations of tests. 5. Do not use only one elicitation technique. 6. Do not use tests administered in English only. 7. Do not assume that features of a second language or a dialect of English are characteristics of a disorder. 8. Do not assume that support personnel are automatically trained to aid in the diagnostic process.
43
Define assistive technology
any item, piece of equipment, or system used to improve functional capabilities of individuals with disabilities.
44
Define assistive learning device (ALD)
commonly used in schools to amplify the teacher’s voice above background noise levels
45
Define ACC
Provides a means of communication for those individuals who have not acquired functional language or those who have lost language.
46
Define low-tech and know examples
Sign language, picture exchange
47
Define mid-tech and know examples
Speech-generating devices with fixed displays that use digitized speech (e.g., voice output switches)
48
Define high-tech and know examples
Speech-generating devices with computer-like screens that use synthesized speech
49
What are some of the sources of family diversity that present particular challenges for the clinician
-ethnic, cultural, and linguistic differences -different family structures -the impact of poverty on disability
50
What does IDEA(2004) require for clinicians to do for families
Infants and toddlers receive services under an individualized family service plan (IFSP). * IFSPs provide family-centered care. * Development of IFSPs include the family in the decision-making process.
51
Family centered assumptions and attitudes
1. any circumstance that affects one family member affects other members. 2. The family has a right to establish its own priorities. 3. The family must be accepted as being the experts concerning their family member. 4. The clinician must collaborate with family members to obtain assessment information and in developing intervention goals. 5. The family must be acknowledged as having the right to form their own approach to raising their child or caring for an older family member, as long as health and safety are not an issue. 6. The clinician must acknowledge any personal bias regarding preconceived notions of expected role behavior in approaching a family and must place these notions aside in order to assess function of the specific family and client. 7. In situations in which a family report appears to differ significantly from a clinician’s observation, it is the responsibility of the clinician to explore with the family situations
52
What does ASHA’s preferred practice patterns include in its list of what should be included in the focus of intervention
The focus of intervention should include training of communication partners, caregivers, family members, peers, and educators.
53
What does SOAP stand for
Subjective, objective, assessment, plan
54
Identify statements that should be in each section S.O.A.P.
S- clients mom reported the client was in a good mood all morning O- client followed 13/25 auditory commands. Client demonstrated joint attention in 26/29 opportunities. A- CLIENT DEMONSTRATED IMPROVEMENTS IN AUDITORY COMPREHENSION AND JOINT ATTENTION. CLIENT WAS MORE ENGAGED IN THE ACTIVITIES AND APPEARED TO ENJOY THE ACTIVITIES WITH MORE PHYSICAL MOVEMENT. P- adapt activities to encourage more verbalization
55
Define basic research
Adds knowledge about fundamental process (how toddlers develop language)

Define applied research and differentiate from basic research
Applied:Studies individual or specific cases without the objective to generalize Basic: fundamental or pure research
