Creating a New Swallow Assessment Framework ✍️

On the plane back from the SPA conference in Adelaide, I felt so inspired. It hit me just how many speech pathologists across Australia are supporting clients with complex swallowing needs — often without enough guidance or resources.

For clients with severe disabilities, dysphagia can be a huge part of their health journey. But let’s be honest: this population is often glossed over at uni, and once you’re out practicing, there’s no clear “how-to” guide to follow. The research? Still a bit of a blind spot.

So the question is: how do we ensure evidence-based practice in a space where the evidence is limited or emerging?

After nearly 30 years working with clients with complex dysphagia, I’ve seen and learned so much — and now, it’s time to give back.

Somewhere mid-flight, I opened my laptop and started writing. I’m building a swallow assessment framework tailored to clients with complex disability — something practical, experience-informed, and grounded in clinical reasoning.

It’s still in the works, but I’m excited to share more soon.

Feeling stuck with complex dysphagia cases? You're not alone.

Working with clients who have complex disabilities can be challenging. Every presentation is different, and often, the textbooks don’t have the answers.

- Dysphagia in complex presentations

- Mealtimes and mental health

- Enteral feeding

- Risk feeding

- Saliva management

- Navigating interdisciplinary teams as an SP

If you’re looking to build confidence and clinical reasoning in this specialised area, get in touch – Fiona Ann and Ivania are now accepting enquiries.

Grocery shopping isn’t just about healthy meals—it’s also a great chance to build your child’s language skills.

Have your child help write the grocery list to practice sounding out words and build spelling skills.

As you shop, talk with your child about the names, colours, shapes, sizes, and textures of the items you choose. 🍞🍏 You will help expand their vocabulary and develop key concepts.

Encourage older children to read labels, compare items, and ask questions to build comprehension and critical thinking.

Everyday routines like this help children connect words to the world around them, laying the foundation for strong communication and literacy skills.

We’re thrilled to introduce Fiona B, our amazing receptionist here at CCSpeech!

With over 35 years of experience in administration roles, Fiona brings a wealth of knowledge, professionalism, and warmth to our front desk. She’s the friendly voice on the phone and the welcoming face when you walk through the door — always ready to help with a smile.

🌟 Meet Our Allied Health Assistants! 🌟

We’re so excited to have Abbie and India on the CCSpeech team!

🎓 Abbie is a passionate 4th year Speech Pathology student who brings plenty of knowledge and warmth to her role.
📘 India is a bubbly and enthusiastic 2nd year Speech Pathology student who’s already making a wonderful impact.

As Allied Health Assistants (AHAs), Abbie and India work alongside our speech pathologists to provide consistent, high-quality support to our clients — and they’re both already much-loved members of the team!

When they’re not busy helping out in sessions, you’ll often find them enjoying their lunch breaks by the lake with the local ducks 🦆💚 — it’s one of their favourite spots to unwind!

We’re so lucky to have these two on board. Be sure to say hi if you see them around!
