Anyone have any experience with SLPs doing cognitive rehab? I'm looking through a patient's chart and the SLP plans to begin "cognitive treatment."
What does that look like from an SLP approach? Are they even qualified to do this? I remember this being an issue of scope creep during a TBI IPR practicum experience I had, but I didn't get a chance at the time to learn more about it. I just remember the SLPs and OTs advocating for doing more cognitive assessments, which my mentor at the time was not particularly fond of, especially since the OT at this place had a tenuous understanding of the definition of "percentile."
Is this scope creep? Or are SLP cognitive assessments/treatments much different from the ones we use?
