Case study
Mr Jones has been diagnosed with throat cancer and will have surgery to remove his voice box.
As a speech pathologist, it’s your role to:
Assist the medical team to make the diagnosis using state of the art technology
Provide Mr Jones with education about the procedure and prognosis
Inform Mr Jones of his communication options post-procedure, including an electronic voice box or a device implanted in the throat
Teach Mr Jones how to speak, eat and drink post-operatively and provide ongoing support and management throughout his entire life

It’s definitely worth doing a volunteer placement in a setting that interests
you to give you an idea of what a speech pathologist does on a day-
to-day basis
Don’t forget you can use your
qualifications all over the world

There’s a national shortage of speech pathologists at the moment, so you’ll be in demand
