Speech therapy and feeding...geriatrics...occupational therapy...

We recently had a speech therapist who works at a local rehab hospital come in to talk to us about speech therapy and geriatrics. She talked about (and all the following is just my own, possibly wrong, understanding) how there are three major domains - cognition, communication, and dysphagia.

Cognition - a lot of overlap with OT
Communication - verbal expression, comprehension, voice, etc
Dysphagia - swallowing issues

Some of the cool things we learned about..next..........
