A speech therapist has many roles such as interpreter and consultant, knowing when to stop any interaction of patient treatment in relation to their abilities is essential, it may cause relapses in therapy and "false positives" in a patients speech i.e re-learning and forming normal speech but forgetting it again.
Nurses, in any situation must be aware of their limitations as seen above, but a patients recovery can be hampered by a number of unknown factors, these include mobility loss, emotional and mental difficulty and unknown factors at home, recognising these is essential and part of their work but referral to the correct health care groups must be followed through, a nurse cannot take on the role of a occupational therapist or a social worker etc... The same applies to speech therapists, any unknown factors out-with their abilities must be referred.
Professional supervision is a reliable tool for ensuring a nurses standard of work is constantly high and also ensuring any changes and proposals made to any form of treatment with a patient is up to date and the best for their recuperation, this includes new nurses being supervised though sub-dermal treatments even to basic patient care duties. Speech therapy is a constantly revised profession, therefore all new and experienced workers attend and are supervised by fellow therapists, this also as with nursing is to ensure that the level of care and treatment being administered is high, especially as recuperation rates are in some cases, slow and can take months of work to reach normal speech function again
