PEDIATRIC FEEDING
SCREENING PACKET
You weren’t prepared for moments like these -- but I want to let you in on a little secret... Neither were most feeding therapists.
It might sound crazy, but it’s absolutely true.
So much of the graduate curriculum out there is focused on adult patients, that even highly-educated feeding therapists spend THOUSANDS of dollars and YEARS of research just to gain an understanding of how to assess our pediatric cases.
But what if all that information could be condensed into ONE gloriously easy-to-understand document?
What if you could see developmental milestones laid out in a glance? What if you could describe your observations in a systematized way? What if you could help more children and families than EVER before?
Introducing: The Pediatric Feeding Screening Packet!
Inside, you’ll find:
- A developmental milestone chart covering what’s expected in a child’s first 3 years.
- A comprehensive checklist that allows you to record your observations with ease.
- An additional log to reflect on the results and share them with your patient’s family.
- And a referral form to make getting your patient care outside of your practice easy.
In other words, it’s everything you need to confidently and competently screen your pediatric cases…
Which is something that ALL Speech-Language Pathologists and Occupational Therapists can use!
Hi, I’m Hallie.
I’m a Speech-Language Pathologist and Pediatric Feeding Specialist dedicated to helping other clinical professionals gain the confidence and clarity they need to address feeding issues in their practice and become the Feeding Therapists their patients need!
I’ve spent 10 years researching and refining the best approach for pediatric patients to save myself, my staff, and YOU precious time, energy, and money while making a difference in our communities!
But don’t just take it from me…
“This is a very useful tool. It’s simple to use but also comprehensive. I really like the chart that includes ages as well. I think this tool can give a really good picture of the child and help clinicians form a description of the strengths and needs. I also like how there is a section to write findings to put any extra information. Overall I would definitely recommend it and think it’s a unique tool for assessing and describing feeding needs.”
-- Emily McCullough, MA, CCC-SLP
“This feeding checklist is very comprehensive, but at the same time has helped my screens become more concise and efficient. It serves as a great guide, and I will be sure to have this as a tool to complete all of my feeding screenings!”
-- Cortney Mosle, MS, OTR/L
“Love this checklist! Developmentally breaks down the key areas of feeding/swallowing. Easy tool to use with families to demonstrate development of skills. Also a great tool to use as clinician's as a cheat sheet during intervention!”
-- Meghan Carlson, MS, CCC-SLP
