Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic brought challenges and the need for adaptation on several fronts. Updating working methods is necessary; and promoting education and services in health sciences that are appropriate to the 21st century is essential. School clinics associated to universities and training centers working together with public health services provide assistance to a significant portion of the population.
In this letter, we will propose some reflections on the relevance of using telehealth technologies as part of the professional training for speech-language pathologists, considering the articulation between national curricular guidelines, professional training and ethical aspects.
Resumo
A pandemia do COVID-19 trouxe desafios e necessidade de adaptação em diversas frentes. A atualização das formas de trabalho é necessária e promover ensino e atendimento no setor saúde condizentes com o século XXI é fundamental. Não estamos apenas tratando da formação de graduandos na área de Fonoaudiologia, mas do atendimento clínico a uma parcela significativa da população que depende dos serviços de clínicas-escola vinculadas às universidades e centros de formação em nossa profissão.
Neste texto traremos algumas reflexões sobre a relevância do uso das tecnologias de telessaúde para a formação de fonoaudiólogos, considerando a articulação entre as diretrizes curriculares nacionais, a formação profissional e aspectos éticos.
