Vocal Rehabilitation with a Multi-Disciplinary Team: The Strength of Collaboration in the Successful Remediation of Voice
Thursday 10th August 2023, 5:00 PM - 7:00 PM (London Time)
As we move into the 21st century, the model of an interdisciplinary voice team has become the standard of care in the treatment of voice problems.
In this session, we will review the history of this concept, the history of the singing voice specialist and current training challenges, the members of a voice team and how they collaborate in the treatment of each voice patient.
Special attention will be given to the relationship between the speech language pathologist and the singing voice specialist in the remediation of problems related to the speaking as well as the singing voice.
Typical exercise strategies will be explained and demonstrated.
