Is it weird to post a picture of your larynx on Twitter? 🤷🏼‍♀️ Doing it anyway because this weeks placement highlight was getting a FEES done! Great opportunity to find out what we put our patients through as well as having the chance to examine my own anatomy! 🤓

Day 1 ✔️ of my last university placement on critical care at Guy’s and St Thomas’, working with long-term ventilation patients. Finally get to wear a set of raspberry scrubs! #scrublife #SLT

Relieved!! Final year VIVA ticked off ✅ just a dissertation to write and an unassessed placement to enjoy and then I’ll actually be able to say, I’m a SPEECH & LANGUAGE THERAPIST 😱🤩🍾.

Week 3 ✅ Lots of communication and swallowing assessments with patients this week. Highlight of the week: delivering formal training on upper airway anatomy to OTs & physios and receiving excellent feedback. If I didn’t know my cranial nerves before, I sure do now!! @BSUH_SLT 🧠

Another fab week on placement with @BSUH_NHS. Finished the week off by shadowing a specialist SLT working on ENT. Great to see some voice therapy techniques demonstrated with patients and get the chance to practice perceptual skills by grading voice quality using the GRBAS 👂🏼👀🗣.

Week one of block placement at @BSUH_NHS complete and so many learning opportunities already! 📝🙌🏼 From assisting with tracheostomy cuff deflation to communication assessments to oromotor examinations! It’s great to be able to apply theory to practice 🧠🗣 @UCL_MScSLS @BSUH_SLT.

Just caught up with “I can’t say my name - Stammering in the spotlight” on @BBCiPlayer. An insightful documentary presented by BBC producer @Felicity_Baker exploring stammering and its impacts. Definitely worth a watch! 🙌🏼.

Gained so much experience over the past 6 months on my Neurorehab placement working with adults with acquired brain injuries. Thoroughly enjoyed collaborating with the members of the MDT to support patients with their communication rehab and recovery 🧠🗣
