Affecting people’s ability to successfully participate in mealtime occupations, swallowing deficits can significantly limit quality of life. Adult Feeding, Eating, and Swallowing demonstrates occupational therapy’s role in dysphagia management within the adult population through evidence-based content, practical how-to information, and emphasis on the multidisciplinary heath care team to equip occupational therapy students and practitioners at all levels to address eating, feeding, and swallowing concerns with their patients.
