This conference will cover aging swallowing and dysphagia in adults with developmental disabilities and will end with innovations in swallowing assessments. As we age, adults present with many health challenges, many of which are inextricably linked to dysphagia. The first session will focus on factors to address when working with aging adults. The second session will review specific considerations for SLPs in assessing and treating feeding and swallowing disorders in adults with developmental disabilities. Finally, the course will explore advancements in swallowing diagnostics.
