A questionnaire examined pwALS' understanding of the SLP role, satisfaction levels, alignment between patient\u2010reported impairments and SLP interventions, and perceived gaps in care. Responses were analyzed using descriptive statistics, with open\u2010ended items analyzed using qualitative analysis.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The 81 survey respondents consisted of pwALS (81.5%), caregivers (11.1%), family members (4.9%), and others (2.5%). Overall satisfaction with SLP care was high, though open\u2010ended responses revealed gaps in understanding. Many were unaware of the full scope of SLP services; only 17.3% recognized cognitive evaluation and 8.6% cognitive therapy, compared with speech (77.8%) and swallowing (81.5%) evaluations. Reported services often did not align with communication and swallowing needs, but patients educated about a service were significantly more likely to use it.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Overall satisfaction with SLP care was high; however, open\u2010ended responses revealed gaps in understanding, unmet needs, and limited awareness of the full scope of SLP services. This misalignment highlights the need for improved patient and caregiver education regarding the role and timing of SLP involvement to enhance engagement, appropriate service use, and outcomes in ALS care.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/mus.70286","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,19]],"date-time":"2026-05-19T03:34:07Z","timestamp":1779161647000},"page":"216-224","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Perceptions of Speech\u2010Language Pathology Care in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: A Patient\u2010Centered Exploratory Study"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"74","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0005-3829-0781","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jennafer D.","family":"Best","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology University of Miami  Miami Florida USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mario A.","family":"Landera","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology University of Miami  Miami Florida USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ruixuan","family":"Ma","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Otolaryngology University of Miami  Miami Florida USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Bridget J.","family":"Perry","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"MGH Institute of Health Professions  Charlestown Massachusetts USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_13_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2147\/JMDH.S134992"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1044\/nnsld20.2.39"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/nu13072413"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/CND.0000000000000281"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/21678421.2017.1313868"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1044\/2025_ajslp\u201025\u201000064"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_8_1","unstructured":"American Speech\u2010Language\u2010Hearing Association \u201cPreferred Practice Patterns for the Profession of Speech\u2010Language Pathology \u201d2004 https:\/\/www.asha.org\/siteassets\/publications\/pp2004\u201000191.pdf."},{"key":"e_1_2_13_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/21678421.2020.1760889"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_10_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3109\/17482968.2011.607500"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_11_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s12152\u2010023\u201009537\u2010y"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_12_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1044\/2023_JSLHR\u201023\u201000087"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_13_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/mus.27361"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_14_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/s0022\u2010510x(99)00210\u20105"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_15_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/17483107.2022.2149866"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_16_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1044\/2020_AJSLP\u201019\u201000136"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_17_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1044\/2015_JSLHR\u2010S\u201014\u20100270"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_18_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/mus.26292"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_19_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/acn3.623"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_20_1","unstructured":"American Speech\u2010Language\u2010Hearing Association \u201cScope of Practice in Speech\u2010Language Pathology[Scope of Practice] \u201d2016 https:\/\/www.asha.org\/policy\/."},{"key":"e_1_2_13_21_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2174\/156720511795563700"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_22_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/21678421.2016.1267768"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_23_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1155\/2011\/714693"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_24_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jamda.2021.09.026"},{"key":"e_1_2_13_25_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.pmr.2008.06.004"}],"container-title":["Muscle &amp;
