Highlights from the January 2009 issue of sportEX health, one of the world's only magazines concentrating on the subject of promoting physical activity for health.
Speech-language pathologists work either in hospital or school settings, with some key differences. In hospitals, they diagnose and treat speech disorders and work with patients at bedside, maintaining detailed records. In schools, they provide therapy to students with speech or language issues and attend meetings to discuss student progress. Both require a master's degree and certification, though hospital settings may require additional certifications. While duties differ based on setting, the overall job outlook remains good with expected growth in both fields.
