The authors commence with coverage of aspects of language from punctuation, through abbreviations, to cultural issues, going on, in a chapter on evidence-based writing, to provide strategies to answer the "why?" (rather than just the "what?" and the "how?") questions about professional writing. A review of the ASHA Code of Ethics precedes the important issue of uses and abuses of the Internet resources, as well as library resources, from collections to copyright and plagiarism. Comprehensive coverage is given to the diagnostic report, in which the authors specify and describe five rules for diagnosis, continuing with guidelines for writing diagnostic reports in speech-language pathology and audiology that include specific instructions and examples for diagnostic protocols and report formats. Coverage of clinical reports and referrals includes templates and samples of a treatment plan, progress report, and chart note, as well as forms of professional correspondence. Also reviewed are issues in clinical writing related to terminology, ethics, and software.
The book concludes with strategies for developing a professional portfolio, preparing a resume, and writing a cover letter, and features an analysis of multiple-choice tests, those used in the Praxis II exam as well as those prepared by course instructors. Unique and much needed, this is the only book to cover the whole spectrum of the communication sciences and disorders in a modern and approachable form. For any clinician, student, or instructor, it delivers a template for personal/professional self-development. Furthermore, it will prove to pay for itself many times over in aiding time-saving, accuracy, expediency in claims, and avoidance of damaging legal actions.

In other words, report behaviors and limit the number of diagnostic labels. RULE #2: Be an Educated Consumer Of Tests And Measures. While the doctorate is generally seen as the degree associated with the production of research, all audiologists and speech-language pathologists must understand research methodology. RULE #3: Beware of 'Clinicese'. Clients may exhibit behaviors in the clinic which they do not generalize outside of the speech and hearing center. RULE #4: Do Differential Diagnosis When Appropriate. Diagnostically related groups (sometimes abbreviated as DRGs) often present similar audiometric and/or language profiles. RULE #5: Obey the Limits of Our Scope of Practice. Provide diagnostic labels that relate to the communicative disorder, not the medical cause.
