Our 2027 SLP graduate students have been getting hands-on with the International Dysphagia Diet Standardisation Initiative (IDDSI) framework!

Our students worked in groups to modify foods to meet specific IDDSI consistency levels for individuals with dysphagia (swallowing disorders). Students gained practical experience applying the IDDSI framework and developed a deeper understanding of how food texture plays a critical role in safe swallowing.

Experiences like these facilitate training our future speech-language pathologists to provide safe, evidence-based care for their clients.

Our SLP graduate students are officially over halfway through their summer semester!

Over the past several weeks, they’ve been diving into the assessment and treatment of dysphagia (swallowing disorders) and recently had the opportunity to visit the CSULB School of Nursing’s mock hospital room to gain hands-on experience with equipment commonly found in medical settings.

A special thank you to the CSULB School of Nursing for welcoming our students and partnering with us in preparing the next generation of speech-language pathologists!

🎉🌟The CSULB SLP Department is very proud of our undergraduate students who established a chapter of National Alzheimer’s Buddies at CSULB! 🎉🎊

National Alzheimer’s Buddies (NAB) 💜 is a national non-profit organization that pairs college students with nursing home residents in the intermediate-to-late stages of Alzheimer’s disease to help combat social isolation. 🫂💜

🏆Ava Casas is the President of CSULB NAB and worked to bring a chapter to CSULB in Spring 2026 after feeling inspired to build a community of fellow students who are passionate about providing companionship to memory-care residents and giving back to the Long Beach community. 🦈🌟

Student volunteers attend one-hour shifts once a week at Mom and Dad’s Homes, which are memory care facilities in Lakewood and Long Beach. 🏠💜 They lead the activities such as making flower bouquets, bookmarks, bracelets, as well as coloring, sensory activities, and sharing stories and poems. 💐🎨🖌

🌟The CSULB NAB board currently consists of Speech-Language Pathology undergraduate students Ava Casas, Gavynne Alcantara, Mary Vu, Zophia Saban-Hardwick, Kenzie Chu, and Emily Cano 🗣🗨 .However, general members also come from nursing, psychology, health science, and other majors, and students from any major are welcome to join! 🧠👥

🎉The SLP Department is proud of our students who actively support the community and demonstrate our commitment and passion for people who have communication difficulties due to various neurological conditions. 🧠🌟 Long Beach Current Newspaper recently wrote and published an article about the CSULB Chapter of National Alzheimer's Buddies, please check it out: 📰🦈https://lbcurrent.com/news/2026/03/30/new-club-connects-student-volunteers-with-alzheimers-patients/
