Oregon Communicator Podcast

Roxanne Hanel talks about Audiology in Eastern Oregon and how things have changed due to district mergers and decreases in funding.

In this episode, I talk with John Evans about his 25+ year career with the Intermountain ESD. He currently works with preschoolers, mostly in LaGrande, and he has recently gotten involved with telepractice as well. 

I talk with Shadra Sanchez, MS, CCC-SLP, a Speech-Language Pathologist with the InterMountain ESD.  We discuss her path from SLP Assistant to Speech-Language Pathologist, the SLP shortage in rural Oregon, and what makes Eastern Oregon a good place to work. 

Welcome to the inaugural episode of the Oregon Communicator, a podcast for the speech, language, and hearing professionals of Oregon. In this episode, I talk with Speech-Language Pathologist Jennie Price, MS, CCC-SLP, of the InterMountain ESD about the unique benefits and challenges of working in Eastern Oregon.
