In this episode of School of Speech, host Carolyn Dolby, MS, CCC-SLP sits down with Janine Benner, MA, CCC-SLP, BCS-CL, ASDCS and Abbie Keibler, MA, CCC-SLP to unpack one of the biggest challenges facing school-based clinicians: overwhelming caseloads.
Over the course of the conversation, they explore the difference between caseload- and workload-based service delivery and why a simple student count rarely reflects the full scope of what school SLPs actually do. From evaluations and documentation to collaboration and compliance, they highlight the many responsibilities that often go unseen in traditional caseload models.
Janine and Abbie also break down what a workload approach really looks like in practice and why more schools are beginning to shift in this direction. You'll walk away with practical strategies, tools, and talking points to help advocate for flexible scheduling and more sustainable service delivery in your school setting.
If you're feeling stretched thin by a growing caseload, this episode offers a clearer framework for understanding workload and practical ideas you can start using right away.
