I am a graduate student. My college offers a course in Dysphagia in adults,
as well as, a course in Dysphagia in children. I am currently in the adult
course and have learned and will learn according to the syllabus what is listed
by ASHA:
-American Speech-Language-Hearing Association. (2002). Knowledge and skills
needed by speech-language pathologists providing services to individuals
with
swallowing and/or feeding disorders. - Our clinical practicum placements are
in a variety of setting which include areas in Swallowing and Feeding
Disorders. Educational background paired with hands on training is much needed when
working with this population. We also must meet ASHA's knowledge and skill
level standards in order to work with this population.
