Synopsis

Written for speech and language therapy students, this book will help those making the transition from student to qualified clinician. Clinical process is about the methods and actions that are used to effect positive change in the communication functioning of people. Students commonly yearn to be told what to do when faced with a clinical problem. While demonstrating and explaining techniques such as ways of administering assessments, ways of interacting, and ways of shaping and reinforcing behaviours are useful and essential, the appropriate and successful use of such methods must depend on a whole wealth of awareness, knowledge, attitudes and behaviours. Professional practice is about the context in which clinicians work, the people with whom they work, and their standards, attitudes and behaviours.
