SLPs, occupational therapists, physical therapists, lactation professionals, ENTs, dentists, orthodontists and other healthcare providers each bring a different perspective. We don’t all need to do the same thing, but we do need to recognize when another piece of the puzzle needs attention.

I recently wrote about collaborative care and why looking at the whole child matters on the Salt & Light blog.
