Synopsis

This unique book offers a detailed, day-by-day exploration of functional treatment of patients of all ages who experience feeding and swallowing problems. Here, the author shares her expertise and techniques, developed over a lifetime of experience in treating these conditions. She describes her successful methods through case studies, using the skills of meaningful communication and empathy while simultaneously setting firm but attainable goals, treatment procedures, and rationales. Excerpts from clients' testimonials: "Only those who have experienced difficulties with swallowing can imagine the everyday frustration (not to mention the hunger!) that such problems can cause. The ability to overcome these problems has led to a radical improvement in my life, for the capacity to nourish and enjoy myself and interact socially with others is absolutely crucial. Ms. Yossem is truly a talented healer and her positive effect on my own everyday life has been incalculable." - Dorothy S. "I remember leaving that first therapy session with the feeling that there was so much work ahead of us...Michelle's handicaps were severe - Florence created a therapy atmosphere in which I believed I would be able to succeed in teaching Michelle new skills. I felt that Florence was just as invested in our success as I was. Michelle was not a case, she was a person." - Michelle's mother.
