SUMMARY:# 306 CAN-EAT Approach …Using medical\, motor\, & therapy strategies in pediatric feeding Live Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Pediatric feeding and swallowing problems that effect infants and children may be complex and often involve a combination of factors including issues that can make eating painful or difficult. In order to successfully remediate feeding problems\, clinicians must understand how medical and nutritional issues can contribute to feeding disorders and use a comprehensive approach to intervention. The CAN-EAT Approach© is a 2-day workshop focusing on medical\, nutritional\, and therapeutic strategies for children with pediatric feeding disorders. \n  \nThis course will allow participants to describe how pediatric feeding disorders are defined in the literature\, what the contributing factors include\, and how this relates to clinical practice. Identify primary gastrointestinal issues (gastroesophageal reflux\, constipation\, motility disorders\, eosinophilic esophagitis\, and visceral hyperalgesia) during a feeding evaluation and explain how these issues affect a child’s feeding skill development and ability to progress. Participants will analyze a child’s oral motor function and apply the knowledge in treatment making recommendations for appropriate diet\, utensil use\, and development of a therapy plan for skill development. Identify signs and symptoms of pharyngeal dysphagia or risk for pharyngeal dysphagia in a child and make appropriate recommendations for further assessment or treatment. Analyze moderate and complex pediatric feeding cases identifying barriers to feeding progression and apply principles to prioritize treatment strategies and write appropriate goals. Describe and apply examples of therapeutic techniques to reduce gagging\, improve liquid and food acceptance\, improve chewing skill\, and wean from a feeding tube. \n  \nIn the CAN-EAT Approach© “CAN” stands for comfort and nutrition which come first. Day one will focus on strategies to build GI comfort and good growth as well as explore other medical issues that interfere with feeding progression. Day two will focus on therapeutic strategies from a variety of philosophies. “EA” represents establishing acceptance of the spoon\, easy textures or mealtime routine. Then “T” stands for therapy for skill development and feeding progression. Therapeutic strategies for common feeding problems will be explored in depth through lecture and video demonstration. \n  \nInformation is applicable to infants and children from birth to 21 (class will discuss infants but is not focused on infant feeding issues) \n  \nInstructor: Krisi Brackett PhD\, CCC-SLP\, C/NDT

SUMMARY:Adapting Low Vision Screening and Treatment Techniques for the School Setting - Live Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Visual deficits often get masked as cognitive deficits where poor academic performance is blamed on lack of motivation and attention. This course highlights the case study of a high schooler with visual deficits as she handles her academic demands in high school. The course teaches clinical observations\, visual screenings\, evaluation\, and treatment interventions that can be implemented not only in the outpatient therapy setting but also within the classroom. The attendee will be able to address these visual deficits and add tools to improve academic engagement and self-confidence. \nHighlights\n\nLearn clinical observations\, standardized tests and practical interventions for identified visual deficits in a real-world case study.\nIdentify treatment resources and strategies to improve functional visual performance at home and in school.
