Feeding Interventions With Allergy Considerations – Live Webinar

This course provides a unique look at the treatment area of feeding disorders, with a particular focus on consideration of allergies and their impact on children who may be labeled “picky eaters” or as having “sensory defensiveness.”

Learning Outcomes

• After this course, participants will be able to recognize common signs that may indicate a student has allergies, even in the absence of related medical information or allergy testing.
• After this course, participants will be able to identify foods that could be problematic for students with allergies due to higher mold content and/or histamine levels.

After this course, participants will be able to explain to a parent or teacher what types of foods would be a good starting point for systematic desensitization with a child, and when assessment evidence indicates allergies could be a concern.
