In this week’s episode Professor Bronwyn Hemsley and Dr Lucy Bryant from UTS speak about their soon to be published systematic review into GLP. Bronwyn and Lucy speak about how and why they started this research and some considerations they would like stakeholders to reflect upon. The systematic review is linked below. Speech Pathology Australia supports individualised, person-centred care as best practice. SPA understands that there are differing perspectives about GLP, and understands the hesitation that both speech pathologists and people with lived experience hold. There is need for ongoing professional conversation about research, evidence base and, importantly, ensuring that consumer voice is included, especially in situations where they may have been historically excluded or marginalised.
