NSU’s Speech-Language Pathology (SLP) program alumnae, Lauren Tome, M.S., CCC/SLP, was featured in Joe DiMaggio Children’s hospital “Catch the Love this Season” as they celebrate those who have hands that heal and hearts that care.
As part of an inpatient rehabilitation team in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, here are some “wow” moments centered on healing I’ve experienced as a Speech-Language Pathologist.
Lauren stated her wow moment was “Watching a mom and/or dad safely per oral feed their premature infant for the first time using compensatory strategies and identifying their infant’s cues that I was able to teach them as their Speech-Language Pathologist”.
