Congratulations, Hannah Allen, MS CCC-SLP, BCS-S, on achieving Master Clinician for Dysphagia and FEES (Fiberoptic Endoscopic Evaluation of Swallow), a Double Master Clinician. Hannah graduated from the University of Utah’s SLP program in 2015. Since graduating, Hannah has worked in acute care, home health, outpatient, sub-acute, and SNF.


Hannah is very passionate about evidenced-based practice and has been a strong advocate for this in the SNF setting. As part of her evidenced-based advocacy, Hannah was instrumental in developing an in-house FEES program at St. Joseph Villa, where she was a lead SLP. She also helped develop FEES programs in the Milestone market and in other markets across the organization. Meanwhile, Hannah also became a Board-Certified Specialist in Swallowing and Swallow Disorders and became the DOR at Heritage Park Healthcare and Rehabilitation in Roy, Utah. Where does she find the time? We are so grateful for Hannah, her passion for evidenced-based care, and her willingness to share her passion and expertise throughout our organization.
