Feed Certificate
The act of eating and sharing a meal is the foundation of many of our social and cultural experiences. At mealtime, we are focused on much more than satisfying our hunger and providing our bodies with nutrition and hydration . When a person requires assistance to eat, the mealtime experience can drastically change and can be accompanied by loss of independence and choice. Dysphagia—swallowing difficulty or discomfort—can further complicate the matter.
FEED —Facilitating Effective Eating in Dysphagia is a self-directed program that contains most of the information you will require to provide effective feeding assistance to geriatric persons in your care setting.
