Dementia can result in difficulties with walking, talking, and thinking. Difficulties with eating and swallowing, or dysphagia, can also occur and this can result in troubles with nutrition, hydration, UTI, and respiratory infections. Symptoms of dysphagia include coughing, wet sounding voice, sensation of food sticking, food in mouth after eating, and slow intake. This course will provide foundational knowledge to understand this part of the disease process and how a speech language pathologist can provide support, resources, and therapy to manage symptoms for the person with dementia and their caregiver.
An informational handout will be provided with the course for participants to take home.
I am a speech language pathologist with 6 years of experience in various settings, including trauma and stroke center hospitals, rehabilitation hospitals, and outpatient clinics. I specialize in helping patients recover their abilities to think, talk, and eat after strokes and other diagnoses, such as dementia. My passion lies in educating patients and caregivers on managing dementia, particularly the common symptom of dysphagia, to prevent complications like pneumonia. I have worked with the non-profit MNCAN on a language-based dementia program and have presented at state conferences and guest lectured on dysphagia management at Minnesota State University-Mankato.
