Rehabilitation Services with a spotlight on Speech and Language Pathology

Feb 28, 2023 | Featured!, News

The Vermont Health Exploration Resources & Opportunities (HERO) program provides year-round extracurricular science enrichment and career exploration for high school students interested in health care and health science. During the upcoming weeks, we will be sharing various posts by HERO mentors that examine and explore different health careers. This week’s blog post is shared by HERO mentor, Clara Wyman.

“Hey HEROs! Happy happy new year! I hope you are all starting the year off strong and readjusting to being back at school. I know it is so tough to wake up early after sleeping in during winter break so I wish you all well. This week we will be continuing with Rehabilitation Services by discussing Speech and Language Pathology.
First up we have two lovely introductory videos into the field discussing the basic job description and responsibilities of a Speech and Language Pathologist: Click Here!, And Here!
