Dr. Hall's research pioneers culturally responsive approaches to dysphagia management in linguistically diverse populations, telepractice ethics, and interprofessional healthcare models. She investigates critical intersections between cultural competence and clinical practice across voice disorders, fluency, and neuroanatomy, with particular emphasis on reducing healthcare disparities through tailored assessment and intervention strategies that honor patient backgrounds.
Analysis of her 2019-2023 publications reveals consistent thematic focus on dysphagia in multicultural contexts, ethical telepractice frameworks, and cognitive assessment in traumatic brain injury. Her work demonstrates methodological diversity through scoping reviews, clinical validations, and interprofessional case studies, all unified by a commitment to equitable care delivery. Notable contributions include culturally adapted dysphagia protocols and tele-ethics decision-making frameworks.
As an active mentor, Dr. Hall directs student research projects and serves on editorial boards including the Journal of Communication Disorders. Her professional service encompasses leadership in the Dysphagia Research Society, National Foundation of Swallowing Disorders, and ASHA committees where she shapes policy through her Medicare advocacy role, though specific grant histories remain unspecified in available documentation.
