These guidelines were designed to advise clinicians in their assessment and treatment practices of various speech-language pathology cases across age groups with careful consideration of the current infection prevention and control protocols released by the WHO, DOH, IATF, and other related policy-making bodies.

The Philippine Association of Speech Pathologists (PASP) emphasizes that these guidelines should not be interpreted to include all proper treatment decisions or methods of service delivery. It does not state the exclusion of other treatment decisions or methods of service delivery reasonably directed to obtaining the same results.
