This course will focus on how to problem solve complex swallowing a nd feeding issues in infants and children via lecture\, videos\, and case analyses. Targeted strategies will be discussed per evidence from sensorim otor learning principles & neural plasticity. Assessment and intervention goals optimize functional outcomes. Problem areas include: airway\; GI tra ct (e.g.\, GERD and eosinophilic esophagitis)\; nutrition\; tube feeding & weaning\; barriers to successful oral feeding & ways to overcome them\; p icky eaters. This event is continuing education eligible.\n\nRegister Here \n\nRegistration Deadline: March 1st\, 2017\n\nREGISTRATION FEES INCLUDE: \n Print course materials\, mid-morning and mid-afternoon drinks/snacks and certificate of attendance. Lunch is on your own. \n\n \n\nAbout the Speak er:\n\nJoan Arvedson\n\nPhD\, CCC-SLP\, BCS-S\, ASHA Fellow\n\n           Joan C.
