Main description:

''Dysphagia Assessment and Treatment Planning Workbook: A Team Approach, Fourth Edition'' was designed as a companion to the textbook, ''Dysphagia Assessment and Treatment Planning'', by Dr. Rebecca Leonard and Dr. Katherine Kendall. The fourth edition of the textbook is ideal for graduate dysphagia courses in speech-language pathology programs and has been updated with a new organizational scheme and new and revised content throughout. The workbook reflects these changes and also includes a new PluralPlus companion website with multimedia content unique to the workbook.

Based on Dr. Julie Barkmeier-Kraemer's experience teaching and training graduate students and colleagues in the area of dysphagia, a variety of activities and questions are included in the workbook to facilitate understanding and engagement of each chapter in the associated textbook. The workbook includes quiz questions, figure labeling, case-based problem solving, application of videofluorographic and FEES measures or ratings, as well as report writing. Answers or model responses are provided at the end of the workbook for the reader's reference.

The activities and questions provided in the ''Dysphagia Assessment and Treatment Planning Workbook, Fourth Edition'' will help readers improve their understanding and implementation of clinical instruction in the area of dysphagia and can be used by students or practicing clinicians hoping to add new skills to their repertoires.
