Mr. Jоnes is а 63 yeаr оld mаn whо is undergoing chemoradiation for a T2N1M0 supraglottic cancer. He is currently in his 4th week of treatment. You are seeing him every 2 weeks. At the last visit, he was doing well, eating a regular diet and feeling good. Today, he reports that he has throat pain and severe dry mouth. He has been eating less due to pain and loss of appetite. He has lost 7 lbs since your last visit. He is also not drinking much liquid. He is complaining of redness and pain of the skin on the sides of his neck. He's not really brushing his teeth because of pain on the inside of his mouth. He also reports that most foods taste bad and nothing seems appetizing. He feels that he can't do his swallowing exercises right now because he is simply not feeling very well and has a lot going on in his life in terms of his cancer treatments. Also, he is experiencing pain when trying to do the exercises. Mainly he is drinking a couple of Ensures each day. He is still smoking because "It's the only thing that seems to help me feel better". Given his active cancer treatment and current symptoms, is Mr. Jones a good candidate for speech pathology intervention right now? Why or why not? What are some concerns you might have about Mr Jones right now in terms of his behavior during treatment? What are some intervention options you could explore with Mr. Jones to address some of his symptoms and problems? Are there other professionals you would refer to or collaborate with? Explain.
