A Guide To Clinical Assessment And Professional Report Writing In Speech-Language Pathology Download Free (EPUB, PDF)
A GUIDE TO CLINICAL ASSESSMENT AND PROFESSIONAL REPORT WRITING IN SPEECH-LANGUAGE PATHOLOGY, 1E not only provides guidance for the often overwhelming process of assessing speech and language disorders but also offers robust diagnostic report writing tools in one user-friendly resource. Organized by disorder, this book is the only one to provide a sample report for each of the major communicative disorders discussed. It also includes a chapter devoted to basic report writing skills and grammar. The assessment aspects of the book offer an in-depth chapter on counseling, a detailed and comprehensive chapter on dysphasia for both pediatric and adult populations, and a clear and practical chapter on assessment of accent. Each chapter is written by experts in their area of communication disorders and provides the following information: background and characteristics of the disorder; parameters for assessment; pertinent interview questions; an inventory and explanation of relevant formal and informal assessment measures in narrative and table format; a section on differential diagnosis to assist in teasing out the specific problem; and a sample case history with assessment tools chosen for that vignette along with rationale for making such selections. All this information is woven into a sample diagnostic report and a similar assignment is provided for practice, making this an ideal resource for ESL learners as well as students preparing for the praxis. Every chapter includes a list of key vocabulary and a glossary to familiarize your students with the professional vernacular relevant for writing diagnostic reports.

This book was everything I was hoping it would be. I'm currently in the school system and recently got hired for PRN at a SNF and needed something to catch up on the latest information for assessment writing. Everything professionally written and easy to understand. I would definitely recommend this book.
This is something that will come in handy with the writing techniques of professional report writing and if you are speech language pathologist will help learn how to write the report out and has a lot of example and shows you how to write. The book shows a lot of information in details.
This book is comprehensive and easy to read. It has chapters which cover everything from determining if a formal measure is appropriate (e.g., psychometrics) to how to conduct a voice evaluation and questions to ask during an interview with a new client. An indispensible book for me. I have used it more than a few times since I bought it a year ago.
This is a great introduction to clinical assessment methods and report writing for new and old clinicians alike. This book provides a great overview of assessment targets for a variety of areas and how to describe assessments in professional writing.
