This clinical resource is intended to be a guide for speech language pathology graduate students as they enter their off-site pediatric and adult externship placements. As graduate students engage in off-site placements, the knowledge and experience that students receive in these placements are invaluable. These placements provide the foundation for the provision of all future clinical services. In order to prepare graduate students for this enterprise, Clinical Resource Manual for Graduate Speech Language Pathology Students: Transition from Theory to Practice has been developed as a resource manual to be used as a companion to clinical fieldwork. This resource is intended to enhance the development of clinical decision-making and problem solving, goal writing and implementation, and clinical writing skills for aspiring speech language pathologists.
