😊I didn’t write this, but it makes me proud to be an SLP and to own a business that employees Speech Pathologists who are amazing!
Happy Better Speech and Hearing day to day and month to my fellow speech therapists, and especially my colleagues ❤️
Ben Mason, Danielle Pittman, Rachael Greene, Allison Lockhart Reeb, Megan Barnett, Olivia Jocek. Monica and Neenah too!

“I'm a Speech Pathologist."
"So you teach people how to talk?"
"No. Sit back for a moment and let me tell you what a Speech-Language Pathologist pours their heart into day after day...
We help a person, whose brain can no longer send the correct signals, to produce basic sentences and answer simple questions so he can participate in social activities with others...
We teach memory strategies to someone with dementia so she can remember the names of her grandchildren...
We help a child on the autism spectrum with their social skills, in the hopes that the bullying will stop and they will make one friend before the end of the school year...
We rehab someone's swallowing muscles so they can have a sip of McAlister's ice tea, because it is their absolute favorite...
We give hope to the parents who have finally accepted that their child is delayed, after the doctor repeatedly tells them he is just a late talker...
We teach someone with new cochlear implants how to communicate without sign language after a lifetime of deafness being all they know...
We ease a stuttering child's anxiety when they are preparing to stand up in front of their class to give a book report...
We show someone how to apply a passy-muir valve to their tracheostomy so they can use their voice to tell their family "I love you” ...
We have the difficult conversation with a family to tell them that grandma's cognitive impairments make her unsafe to go back to her home alone...
We help a child pronounce certain sounds correctly, after years of others reinforcing the wrong way, when they reach an age where their impairment is no longer considered cute...
We help a young, intelligent woman who has had a massive stroke learn to use a speech-generating device so that she can return to her vibrant and capable self...
We place voice prostheses to allow a Laryngeal Cancer survivor to tell his family he loves them after cancer so cruelly took his voice from him....and we think about these people when we're falling asleep at night and we pray for them and we spend time off the clock and our own money on things that we think may help them even the slightest... and we constantly put up with being misunderstood and overlooked.

So if you know a Speech Pathologist, tell them thank you and give them a hug, because I promise you, after spending their days pouring their hearts into others, they need someone to replenish theirs.

It with deep sadness that I share we lost one of our dedicated team members of Professional Speech. Jen worked for us as a new grad and moved to Canton with her husband after she married. She was one of the most compassionate and sweet therapists, who was always willing to work hard and be present for all of her clients! She was helpful in developing our speech camp summer groups. She continued her work in Canton and had 2 amazing children whom she adored and are a great reflection of her.
May she rest in eternal peace! God bless her and her family!

View Jennifer M. Bossart's obituary, send flowers and sign the guestbook.
