Susan is an ASHA-certified SLP at a public elementary school. One of her teachers at her school referred a first grade, Alex, to Susan because she was concerned about his speech and language development. Alex moved to the US from Ukraine two years ago, and his first language is Russian. His parents speak Russian exclusively at home. Susan conducted articulation and language tests in English. Alex's scores on these tests were low, qualifying him for speech therapy at the school. Susan did not arrange any tests in Russian because she strongly believes that it is in his best interest if he speaks English as his first language. She has been bilingual children who struggled academically and socially over the years and does not want Alex to experience the same. She filed paperwork for Alex without mentioning his first language and started providing speech therapy for him. Below is a statement about cultural competence issued by ASHA. "professionals must recognize that differences do not imply deficiencies or disorders. Culture and language may influence (a) the behaviors of individuals who seeking health, habilitative, or rehabilitative care and (b) their attitudes toward speech, language, and hearing services and providers. Evaluations of students should be culturally responsive and appropriate based on the child's heritage, language and culture. You should not report test scores when using translated tests that have not been normed on the population representing the student, nor should you use tests containing biases that will negatively affect a child's performance and that may erroneously indicate the need for special education services." Decide whether Susan is immoral or moral and following ASHA's guidelines
