A Multidiscipline Practitioner Pilot Study Into the Potential Professionalization of Singing Voice Rehabilitation Specialists in the United Kingdom

Overall, professionalization for SVRS was viewed positively, to enhance integration into existing workplace structures. Professional training, certification, and regulation was felt to be important for creating a shared language between clinicians and nonclinicians. It was noted, however, that there are challenges within the current medical paradigm, which would be less advantageous to pursue. The requirements of professionalization should be carefully negotiated alongside the current freedoms and creative practices employed by SVRSs.
