Article Synopsis
- Many first-line health care providers (FHPs) lack knowledge about the role of speech-language pathologists (SLPs) in managing mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), with over half rating their understanding as low.
- A significant number of FHPs rarely or never refer patients with mTBI to SLPs, indicating a gap in collaborative care practices.
- The study highlights the need for educational initiatives aimed at improving FHPs' understanding of SLPs' contributions to mTBI management to enhance patient care.
