Yeah, and I'll go.
My name is Sarah Penrod, as Kate said, I work for Maine Health, Maine Medical Center as a clinical specialist, which involves a lot of program development, education, and knowledge brokering between staff, the rehab department, SLP providers, respiratory department.
So we'll get into some of the details about what I do, but I'm also really excited to be here and always have.
Happy to work with all of you guys.
Yeah, super happy to talk about this anytime, as you know, Kate.
And I think it's interesting for the listeners that I myself didn't really have any of this vocabulary before Kate and I built a relationship and I was brought onto this fantastic team.
Um, I just thought of myself personally as a an extremely passionate and very nerdy.
Speech pathologist who really just had a question about every aspect of what I was doing.
And always going back to the I mean, when you go to the literature, you have a very specific question usually about a specific treatment or a specific patient, and and finding that either literature is too broad or or doesn't include 55 comorbidities that you're seeing in patients.
Um to hear you describe.
What I do in this
really flattering way is very humbling.
And I don't know that I necessarily identify with all of these wonderful things, but I also
am doing them so it's it's like a weird place to kinda come at it, but um
Though what Natalie was talking about specifically with motivation, I think that my whole job started with motivation.
I am just so motivated to provide the best care for my patients that it
It always turned into how can we, what does the literature say?
What can we do better?
How can we meet and talk about these topics when there's inconsistencies?
And through that motivation and those conversations, sort of built the trust with the department.
