EP 48: Health (in)equity in dysphagia care with Raele Loy

In this episode, we talk to Dr. Raele Loy (https://ssbl.wisc.edu/staff/robison-p...) , a Speech and Language Therapist and research scientist at the Center for Health Disparities Research at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. We discuss a critical but often overlooked aspect of dysphagia care: health equity, or the lack thereof. Raele discusses what sparked her interest in health equity, and explains what ‘health disparities’ mean in clinical practice and research today. She discusses what is currently known about disparities in dysphagia assessment and management, and presents her conceptual framework (https://doi.org/10.1002/alz.70028) which illustrates how disparities emerge and persist throughout the entire eating and swallowing care pathway in people with dementia.
