Course Description

An articulation disorder may stand alone, be the symptom of another underlying disorder, and can co-occur with developmental challenges. A thorough differential diagnosis, a prioritized treatment plan, and individualized care can help produce more effective outcomes. Participants learned how to discuss the importance of differential diagnosis, prioritize care within and outside the scope of practice, teach to the individual not the disability, and identify communication goals.

Objective

By the end of this course, participants will be able to:

1
Discuss the importance of differential diagnosis. What are the symptoms and possible underlying causes? What are co-occurring disorders, environmental challenges, or developmental limitations?
2
Prioritize care within and outside our scope of practice. Create a timeline of objectives considering sensory profile, oral-facial development, cognitive development, and external support. 
3
Teach to the individual, not the disability. How does this child learn and synthesize information? What do they need to feel secure physically and mentally? How can they be accountable? 
4
Identify communication goals, evidence-based in your objectives, and willing to customize your strategies.
