The activity will emulate the format of the popular TV show “Shark Tank,” where SLPs will pitch their proposals to a panel of “Sharks” comprising stakeholders.
Healthcare executives, legislative bodies( licensing board, state associations, state senators) and technology experts, patients and other health care providers.
Participants must prepare a compelling presentation outlining the importance of the proposal, its potential impact on patient care, and the expected outcomes. Each participant will have a limited time (5-7 minutes) to present their pitch.
The panel of Sharks will evaluate each proposal based on the following criteria:
If appropriate, your proposal should include the following areas:
Clinical Impact: How will the proposal enhance the quality of swallowing assessments and patient care?
Innovation: Does the proposal represent a significant advancement in swallowing
Cost-Benefit Analysis: Is the investment justified in terms of potential patient outcomes and healthcare cost savings?
Feasibility: Are there logistical considerations or implementation challenges that need to be addressed?
After all presentations are complete, each group will choose a delegate to present to the panel of Sharks (5-7 minutes), who will then deliberate and provide feedback on each proposal. They will then select the most compelling proposals based on the evaluation criteria.
Each group will be judged individually, and the panel will decide if their proposal will be funded or approved.
