Understanding Dysphagia: The NICU and You with Casey Lewis

  • Summary

  • Join host Michelle Dawson as she dives into all things Dysphagia in this special 9-episode series made in conjunction with the Dysphagia Outreach Project titled "Understanding Dysphagia."

    If you have ever dreamed about working in a NICU, or if you work in Early Intervention or an outpatient pediatric clinic, and have wondered what potentially could have happened with the little one before arriving on your caseload, then this is the episode for you. In this episode of Understanding Dysphagia, Michelle and Casey share experiences from their hearts about the vital importance of continuity of care from NICU to Early Intervention and why we are all part of the same team to achieve the highest favorable outcomes possible for our littlest patients. Casey walks us all through the typical development process for swallowing with a medically fragile infant, the negative impact of feeding with elevated respiratory support, as well as clinical decision-making for nipple flow rate selection, and the roles and responsibilities of members of the multidisciplinary team.
