flow charts for decision making and practical steps

As a CF-SLP, working in an LTAC, the information provided along with a case study was amazingly helpful. The breakdown was GREAT! I hope for more educational videos like these.

It was well organized and provided a framework for breaking down very complex medical cases. It was helpful to establish specific milestones and common risk factors at each milestone of the weening process when decisions about speaking valves and PO intake might be made. The case study was very helpful for putting that theoretical decision-making system into practice. The instructor was knowledgable and the handouts/slides were helpful to look back on later.

Content area was one I am less confident in as primarily a SNF clinician. The systematic protocol/format of decision making is just what I needed for confidence building.

The speaker was very knowledgeable and easy to understand. The only reason I didn't give high marks on every category is that I don't work in the hospital setting so it doesn't necessarily pertain to most of my clients. I'm just interested in dusting off my previous knowledge on the subject.

Even though this is not something I would likely face in the SNF setting, I have always been very interested in the topic. I'm still a little out to sea on all the PIPs and PEEPs, but the decision making process is something I can definitely use.

What made it excellent? Two things. One, info that actually impacts therapy. Info that was new to me! Specifically, the pip/peep stuff was new! Good info. Two, the "frameworks" for thinking...i.e. making flowcharts, avoiding bias, adjusting...basically, metacognition about learning. If a therapist has that, mixed with care for the patient, the ship will right itself, mistakes will be minimized as much as possible, the therapist will improve. Good stuff. Not everyone thinks like this.

Very excited to have come across an expert person on this topic! I've worked many years in a LTAC (currently in acute and outpatient), but still do PRN with LTAC in Chicago/NWI, so trach/vent has been my area. I love going between acute, long-term, and outpatient with this scope. Thank you for addressing all the scenarios as it's ever evolving in what we do.

Decision making charts about patients with trachs seems good in theory, but I feel it would be difficult to implement in an acute care setting where there is a push to get patients moving to a different level of care or discharged quickly. My experience is that doctors push therapists to do PO trials quickly and I'm not sure they would accept such a rigid flow chart.

Thank you for providing such a clear and research based understanding of how to provide the best service to our trach and vent patients. This is what I needed so badly when I started working with these patients. I now see my mistakes 9and what I’ve done well) and I will be able to move forward much more safely and consistently.

This course breaks down the complexities in clinical decision making into bite size chunks specifically related to trach and vent but can be applied to dysphagia management in general. This decision making framework highlights the large gray area under which we as SLPs operate and provides some clarity and objectivity into a previously murky process. This type of structured decision making needs to accompany all our assessments (bedside and/or instrumental). This course is a must.
