I have been asked to write a review document for a law firm and would appreciate comments on this question: How do SLPs cope with the licensing issues in the states/provinces that do not include swallowing in their scope of practice?

I would suggest a literature search at www.nlm.nih.gov.  Choose for health professionals and put in your key words

Does anyone have or know of articles that provide statistics of the
prevalence of dysphagia in the frail elderly?

 

Any help would be appreciated.

We have recently admitted an elderly woman with advanced SDAT and
seizure disorder  and very aggressive behavior who prior to admission
was fed at home solely using a baby bottle with cross hatched nipple.
She retrains only a such swallow.  Hydration and nutrition have been
maintained with this approach. Using the bottle, the resident will often
self feed.  She aggressively resists PO feeds with anything other than a
bottle.  Essentially maintenance of PO is exclusively via a bottle feed.

 

If any of you have experience with bottle feeding approaches in a Long
Term Care setting, I would appreciate any you facility used regarding
cleaning/sterilization  of these items and any approaches your Nursing
staff used to maintain a supply of clean bottles on the nursing unit.  I
know  the approaches to this situation may appear easy, but not for us
at the moment.

Thank you 

Kassie
