In this episode, Michelle is joined by Barbara Coven-Ellis, MA, CCC-SLP, a medical SLP who works in both outpatient pediatrics and adult acute care in rural Washington State and is also the author of “Tyler Takes a Taste: A Boy and His Family's Journey Through "Picky Eating" and Feeding Disorders!”. It is an absolute joy to kick off “Pediatric Feeding Disorder Awareness Month” with Barbara. Over the hour, Barbara discusses her unique journey toward working as a Pediatric Feeding Disorder SLP. She shares how her passion for life-long learning led her to pursue extensive training in interprofessional education for PFD allied medical partners and how that training set her and her patients up for success with interprofessional practice challenges unique to a rural area.
