 ON: 2001 9I制作厂免费 College\, room 547\n\nBarbara聽May聽Bernhardt\, PhD\, Profes
 sor Emerita\, School of Audiology and Speech Sciences\, University of Brit
 ish Columbia\n\nThe 2015 Truth and Reconciliation Report suggests 94 Calls
  to Action\, some of which directly pertain to provision of audiology and 
 speech-language pathology services. Although many speech-language patholog
 ists (SLPs) and audiologists are providing such services to people of Firs
 t Nations\, M茅tis and Inuit heritage in Canada\, most have received minima
 l training concerning culturally competent and safe practices in their uni
 versity training programs or clinical contexts. Fundamental to development
  of cultural competence is for individuals to: (1) acknowledge her or his 
 own identity\, heritage\, and biases\; (2) critically self-reflect on how 
 that identity\, heritage and bias聽may聽influence interactions with others\;
  and (3) gather\, analyse and conduct critical self-evaluative reflection 
 on the history\, cultures and perspectives of people with First Nations\, 
 M茅tis and Inuit background. Building on these foundations\, and in partner
 ship with Aboriginal communities\, service providers can then develop cult
 urally responsive and safe practices for working with different people of 
 Aboriginal heritage. Drawing on her 9-year experience with the UBC School 
 of Audiology and Speech Sciences course development in this topic area and
  recent research\, Dr.聽Bernhardt聽will outline聽approaches to culturally saf
 e and competent practices for people of First Nations\, M茅tis or Inuit her
 itage.\n\nBarbara聽May聽Bernhardt聽was on faculty at the School of Audiology 
 and Speech Sciences at the University of British Columbia from 1990-2017. 
 She has also been a practicing speech-language pathologist since 1972.聽 He
 r primary focus is phonological development\, assessment and intervention 
 across languages. Outcomes of an ongoing international crosslinguistic pro
 ject include the website聽phonodevelopment.sites.olt.ubc.ca. Other areas of
  expertise include use of ultrasound in speech therapy\, language developm
 ent\, assessment and intervention and approaches to service delivery to In
 digenous people in Canada. Regarding the latter\, she conducted and superv
 ised several qualitative research studies and co-developed the course 'App
 roaches to audiology and speech-language pathology for people of First Nat
 ions\, M茅tis and Inuit heritage in Canada' for the School (2009). She has 
 recently been volunteering with the Centre for Indigenous Health at UBC re
 garding a new introductory interprofessional curriculum concerning health 
 practices in First Nations contexts.\n\n\n
