This month features two Speech Language Pathologists (SLPs) who are innovating in their field by utilizing telehealth.
Chelsea Paulus exemplifies Wyoming’s entrepreneurial spirit as she filled a gap in services by creating her own small business call Connect Speech Therapy. She now employs a small team of SLPs and SLPAs who provide services in four school districts across the state. Additionally, her team works with individuals seeking services outside of the school setting, both virtually and in-person, at their Sheridan clinic. Karen Richard wanted to offer her SLP services in Laramie, but there were no job openings, so she took her talents to telehealth and was able to stay in the community she loved while doing what she loved.
Both of these women charted their own paths in their careers while helping others learn more about how telehealth can open doors for patient treatment, career growth and entrepreneurship.
