RESOURCES
There is no “one size fits all” approach when conducting a feeding assessment for your pediatric client – which can be both liberating and intimidating!
TalkTools Instructor, Monica Purdy, will provide a roadmap to follow when assessing your client’s feeding skills that can be adapted to many therapeutic scenarios. The roadmap includes questions to ask caregivers and the client during the assessment, where and what to assess, as well as assessing how feeding skills might be impacting other areas of the client’s life.
The participants will be able to:
- Develop a feeding assessment roadmap based on the client’s current skills, family dynamics and cultural considerations
- Understand the impacts of the sensory system and feeding
- Identify 3 possible scenarios and conditions that may contribute to disordered feeding
- Provide 5 child- and family-friendly feeding strategies to implement at home
