Pneumonia vs. Pneumonitis | What Are The Differences??

Pneumonia vs pneumonitis - do you know the difference?
When I first started out as a medical SLP, I wasn’t even familiar with the word pneumonitis.
All I had ever learned about was aspiration pneumonia.
In today’s episode, I’m going to go over what each condition is, how they’re different from each other, and what our roles are as SLPs when it comes to pneumonia and pneumonitis.
Watch and Enjoy!
