211p. "This practical guide encourages clinicians to treat eating, drinking and swallowing in an holistic way, keeping the client at the forefront of management by considering cultural, ethical and societal influences on the eating and drinking process. It draws on contemporary evidence to critically evaluate assessment and management strategies. Closely aligning to the 20 RCSLT newly qualified practitioner eating, drinking and swallowing competencies, this book will provide clinicians with the theory that underpins the statutory completion of these standards, and the guidance to put that theory into practice. This book is clear and easy to follow with information broken down into a digestible format; includes regular questions to help the reader consolidate their knowledge; highlights in each chapter the knowledge required to achieve the RCSLT competencies; contains a wealth of case studies SLTs may encounter in different settings, followed by suggested approaches, and provides helpful resources that can be downloaded and printed for use in daily practice. Working with Adults with Eating, Drinking and Swallowing Needs provides an up-to-date, clinically relevant resource. With an emphasis on clinical-decision-making, holistic practice and provision of practical materials, this is an essential text for both student and qualified SLT practitioners"-- The typical swallow -- Signs and consequences of an unsafe swallow -- Causes of adult eating, drinking and swallowing needs : aetiologies and symptoms -- Clinical assessment -- Instrumental assessment -- Management of eating, drinking, and swallowing needs in adults -- Psychosocial, spiritual and cultural aspects -- Ethical, legal, safety and professional considerations -- The team around the client with EDS needs -- Advanced practice in working with adults with EDS needs -- Case studies.
