Rachel Barton is a UK-based Speech and Language Therapist in her 30th year of practice. After 22 years in the NHS, she moved into independent work, dividing her time between clinical practice, supervision, and training.
Since 2023, Rachel has been at the forefront of exploring how generative AI can be safely and meaningfully integrated into healthcare. Through workshops, online resources, and collaborations with national bodies like the RCSLT, she has become a leading advocate for using AI to support practitioners’ wellbeing, improve efficiency, and maintain the highest standards of care.
Rachel developed the RCSLT’s “Introduction to Integrating Generative AI in Speech and Language Therapy” eLearning module and has presented at national conferences and events.
In November 2024, Rachel Barton published a ‘Pledge for Responsible Generative AI use in Speech and Language Therapy’. While this free resource was initially aimed at practising SLTs, it has relevance for anyone using generative AI within healthcare.
