Substantial disparities in children’s oral health and access to comprehensive oral health services exist throughout California and the US. There is still a need to increase the ability of primary care providers to care for the needs of all patients, especially the ones with special needs and address the social determinants of oral health. Action is needed by primary care providers to expand access to…

The American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) is implementing multi-year efforts to advance IPECP among its members (i.e., audiologists and speech-language pathologists), including defining what it is and how to implement it and elucidating their role on teams. The following common barriers to IPECP implementation have been noted in ASHA member perspectives: not understanding IPECP and a lack of perceived value (Lawlis et. al., 2014; O’Reilly et. al., 2017).

To meet this competency, health professional schools must develop collaborative experiences for both on-campus and distance students that incorporate a patient-centered focus. Recent pandemic protocols requiring physical…
