ABSTRACT:
Introduction: Hospital Speech-Language Pathology focuses on the prevention, assessment, and rehabilitation of communication and swallowing disorders. Based on an extracurricular internship experience, it was possible to observe specific characteristics of speech-language pathology care across different hospital sectors, contributing to patient safety and recovery. Objective: To report the role of the hospital speech-language pathologist and the particularities in different hospital sectors through the experience gained during a supervised extracurricular internship at a reference hospital in Northern Brazil. Methodology: This descriptive and qualitative experience report was conducted by a Speech-Language Pathology undergraduate student in a high-complexity hospital. Observations carried out in different care units highlighted specific aspects of speech-language pathology practice according to the clinical profiles of patients with cardiac conditions. Results: The experience revealed differences in speech-language pathology care among hospital sectors, including shift handovers, patient monitoring, therapeutic resources, dysphagia assessment protocols, and quality indicators. Particularities reflect specific clinical demands and influence the quality and safety of patient care. Final Considerations: Hospital speech-language pathology practice varies according to the sector and patients’ clinical profiles. Differences in protocols, resources, monitoring processes, and quality indicators require clinical reasoning and continuous adaptation to ensure patient safety.
