Dysphagia Resources

With the ever-evolving technology that we have available, there are so many resources now available to therapists.  Dysphagia resources are a growing field as well.  I decided I would list some available resources here.  Please remember that this list will be continually evolving.  If there is a resource that you think should be added, please email the link to dysphagiaramblings@gmail.com.

 

I do make a small royalty from the Adult Dysphagia Pocket Guide:  Neuroanatomy to Clinical Practice, and the apps Dysphagia Therapy and Dysphagia2Go**

Some books and tools include an affiliate link.  Dysphagia Ramblings will make a small amount when you click and purchase those links.   

Dysphagia Ramblings does not endorse or promote any tool, book, app, blog or anything listed below.   Resources listed should be used with caution and used with the most recent evidence utilized by the user.  Any patient, parent or person with dysphagia should seek the advice and expertise of a Speech Language Pathologist for appropriate diagnosis and treatment planning of dysphagia.
