Please join us in welcoming Sara Gustafson, MS, CCC-SLP and Nicole Rogus-Pulia, PhD, CCC-SLP as they present on the Swallowing and Salivary Science Bioscience Lab‘s community-engaged research and their preliminary work toward the development of a mobile swallowing clinic:

Designing a Mobile Swallowing Clinic for Addressing Community Needs

This presentation will highlight the swallowing care needs in rural and underserved communities, plans for characterizing and defining issues surrounding dysphagia evaluations, and the proposed solution for addressing this important health issue. Specifically, we will discuss the development of a Mobile Swallowing Clinic (MSC) to provide access to necessary dysphagia evaluations for community members. A discussion regarding this proposal with the Working Group will help to identify important considerations for further defining the project.
