Twice a week for 20 minutes or once a week for 50 minutes? How does an SLP decide? In this week’s episode, Dr. Mary Beth Schmitt brings a research-to-practice perspective to help you make the most of those treatment minutes! What is dose, exactly and how do you find that ideal combo of dosage, frequency, and active student engagement to realize the progress you’re looking for within the time you have? This chat will challenge the popular notion that “more is better” and give you the confidence to start powerful service delivery conversations with your fellow stakeholders.
