Summary: Even the most seasoned school-based SLP experiences moments when they stop and say, "Am I doing the 'right' thing?" The question may refer to their adherence to ethical standards or to the legal and clinical expectations of clients and employers. Determining what is "right" should emerge from the SLP's legal and ethical knowledge, so this session focuses on legal and ethical problem-solving across common school-based challenges.
