[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pp, OTs handle things like issues with holding a fork or spoon, helping a child find their mouth etc... She shouldn't have been working on the feeding issue themselves unless she was doing it as a team with an SLP. Feeding therapy is essentially an SLPs job. Also it is not professional to get so busy that you forget an appointment. That is ridiculous. Anyway I don't have a suggestion for you but I do hope that you get some good SLP recs. I have heard of Grace Park but I have heard her expertise is more in cognitive therapy.

For the record, I am involved in healthcare and I don't like to see professionals working on things out of their scope informative which is why I had to say something about the OT Rec. I have seen great things from a team standpoint: OT, SLP and nutritionist working with a child together but an OT shouldn't be working on feeding issues themselves.[/quote]

This program is one of many..
