Analyses of surveys of speech-language pathologists (SLPs) in schools for the Deaf across the United States enable a profile of SLPs' scope of practice, caseload size and characteristics, and delivery of services, as well as features of programs through which they serve students. The findings are compared to previous results of surveys, both large and small, of SLPs in local school programs. Results point favorably to the services provided by SLPs in schools for the Deaf in terms of SLPs' proficiency in sign language, their smaller caseloads, the amount of time they spend in direct services, and a broad range of practice that focuses on written language, sign language, and functional communication.
对美国各地聋人学校言语语言病理学家（SLP）的调查分析，能够勾勒出SLP的执业范围、工作量规模及特点、服务提供情况，以及他们为学生提供服务的项目特征。研究结果与之前针对当地学校项目中SLP开展的大小规模调查结果进行了比较。结果显示，聋人学校的SLP所提供的服务表现良好，体现在他们熟练掌握手语、工作量较小、直接服务时间较多，以及专注于书面语言、手语和功能性沟通的广泛业务范围。
