Abstract

Date Presented 03/28/20

With an increased emphasis on evidence-based practice, documentation, and justification of services in the current healthcare system, this feeding group study serves as a model of the effectiveness of interdisciplinary collaboration, demonstrating the value of OT services to proficiently address feeding skills that strongly impact a stroke patient’s functional performance, return to the community, and quality of life.
