Although I do not currently work with adults, I do have a pediatric client with a degenerative condition that affects him in many of the ways described in this training. Considering his unique diagnosis and its characteristics, I will apply the principles discussed in this training where applicable to target his swallow and saliva management function.

I really took this course for more information on dysphagia with Parkinson's. Very disappointed that so little time was dedicated to that. I have had 1 ALS referral during my 22 year career and I see Parkinson's patients very very frequently. Maybe consider a separate Parkinson's course as I would like to delve a little deeper.

Excellent overview of ALS, and to a lesser extent Parkinson's in terms of gaining a knowledge base about treating these populations. Small clinical anecdotes about what she has observed in her clinic were also appreciated and contributed to her strong expertise in this area. I appreciate her candidness about what the evidence is and is not showing in regards to some treatment programs.

For me the ALS information was most helpful. I also appreciated the fact that the evidence for "dysphagia exercises" in this population is not necessary. Modification of textures and avoidance as long as possible of puree textures was good information. I usually based my texture recommendations along with the client/patient's wishes. I felt this was affirming of that decision.

At the time I did not realize that fronto-temporal dementia can occur with ALS. This patient is in her late 50's. Thank you.

As someone who works almost exclusively with these populations, it was wonderful to hear that another expert in this area uses non-traditional therapeutic approaches and a co-treatment approach with the RD....not only to treat bulbar symptoms but keeping in mind the patient and family's QOL.
