Communication Initiation – Part 1

Join Haden as she discusses part 1 of a new 2-part series, “Communication Initiation.” In this episode of The Working Therapist, Haden begins to explore the keys elements of teaching a child to “do something to get something.” In part 1, Haden explains how communication initiation develops, and how to evaluate a child’s communication initiation based on the normal developmental milestones for speech and a proper use of standardized testing. Haden also gives some insight on goal setting and treatment. This is a fantastic and resourceful podcast for speech, physical, and occupational therapists as well as parents.
