Guest: Brooke Beilman, MS, CCC-SLP - Today’s episode is dedicated to the SLP’s role in head and neck cancer and we invite Brooke Beilman, MS, CCC-SLP, to speak about this important subject. Brooke is an SLP with experience in acute care, inpatient rehab, outpatient rehab, and skilled nursing settings. With certifications in manual interventions like myofascial release, neuromuscular electrical stimulation, NMES, and the Mcneill Dysphasia Therapy Program, Brooke is as brilliant as she is kind. We kick things off by hearing about how Brooke got the idea to become a speech pathologist and then bring this proactive intervention to patients with head and neck cancer, thereafter helping to develop a rehabilitative program for these patients during her CF. From there, we discuss the rise of the role of HPV in the development of head and neck cancer in younger patients and the implications of this. We get into the signs and symptoms of head and neck cancer, common treatment forms used by oncologists, and how this differs from those used by an SLP. Next up, we take a deep dive into the role of lymphatic impairment in head and neck cancer. Brooke helps us understand the lymphatic system and the role it plays in the body, and also weighs in on the condition of lymphedema and the role of myofascial release in treating it. We wrap things up with a conversation about functional aspiration as well as scope of practice and the role of the SLP in treating head and neck cancer patients. Tune in today!
