PhD Presentation to Univesity of Technology Sydney Speech Pathology Symposium (SEER) 2nd Dec, 2020...

I am a speech pathologist with longstanding experience in the field of disability, communication disability, and dysphagia. I have many years of industry experience as a senior clinician in the former NSW Department of Ageing Disability and Home Care, and most recently an Associate Lecturer of Speech Pathology at The University of Sydney. I am now working at The University of Technology Sydney (UTS) and pursuing higher degree research at the Graduate School of Health. I will be exploring the accessibility of written health information for people with communication disability. I have a strong person-centred and rights-based approach to my work, which also recognises the important overlap between ‘disability’ and ‘health’.
