"Where there is life we must provide quality of life." -Paul Raia This should always be shared with our therapists and staff within continuing care. The content shared regarding Dysphagia and Dementia tools/assessments and management is so very important when focusing on quality of life through all stages of dementia. I have always supported pleasure food/recreation snacks over NPO as long as they can be without extreme discomfort and risk if someone is in late stage dementia. Well presented.
