    I’m also a clinical dietitian (in the Netherlands) and this video is pretty accurate and relatable. The multidisciplinary consultation is so important in these situations. It’s nice to see how this works in Canada. A lot of people think that dietitians only treat people who are obese, but it’s so much more than that! In fact, the most patients I treat are malnourished. Treating these patients, who also often have a cormobidity that you have to take into account, is very challenging!

    I was 40 in March. I had a cryptogenic stoke on March 11th, 2019. I was in the ICU in Barrows Desert in Phoenix for 7 days. I, luckily, had a thrombectomy that saved my life. I’m now back to work part time and only my speech is impaired now. (Most won’t notice my speech impediment). I couldn’t swallow at first. I had suppositories for medication. My swallowing and physical deficits can back fast, but it was the thrombectomy. I understand how crippling this life could be. I pray for your patient and love your videos!
    I’ve now had 5 surgeries. Loop recorder implant, PFO closure, endometrial ablation, and cardiac ablation within 4 months. It was sad and chaotic. I’m so glad to be back to my normal life (mostly).

    This is amazing! I am a brazilian registered dietitian, currently on a two-year multi-professional residency program in Cardiopneumology and I absolutely LOVE this kind of interaction. In my context, sometimes it is still hard to break the barriers between doctors and other health professionals, since we still have a cultural unspoken hierarchy "system" between the different professions, but little by little this is changing. Interdisciplinary work is absolutely crucial for the patient and amazing for our learning process. Always enriching. Love this, love this!

    as someone who aspires work in dietetics and has seen many speech language pathologists during my treatment (cleft lip and palate), this title really caught my attention! I loved seeing the test! unfortunate but very interesting...

    I’m currently a first year SLP completing my CF, and I miss the hospital setting so much. During my internship prior to graduation, I worked in a rehab hospital with a great deal of patients with dysphagia. I completely agree with the shakes and “ice cream” desserts tasting great, but a lot of my patients were simply discouraged about not being able to eat regular foods and drink thin liquids at the moment/anymore. It was tough for them to come to terms with their new normal and the only way they could drink their morning coffee was with two packets of thickener in it. At that point, it just doesn’t feel the same in their mouth especially if they already have sensory deficits. Not to mention, puréed macaroni and cheese or turkey and gravy doesn’t look appetizing. I found that just acknowledging their struggles really helped their buy-in to trying the thickened liquids and our swallowing exercises and strategies.

    I always appreciate when you do videos with other disciplines. It helps me understand what my students who want to go into those fields are going towards. :)

    Hi Siobhan,
    I am a pharmacy student studying in the US. I just got done with the GI/nutrition module at school and it is so awesome to see the process (including things to monitor: such as refeeding syndrome, etc. ) in clinical practice.
    Thank you for the education!

    The biggest mistake any professional can make, is to disregard or look down on other disciplines such as us speech therapists.. Thanks for the video! ♥️

    I don't know what province you are practicing in, but I wanted to thank you. I had to go to the hospital in my Province yesterday, and the care I received was nothing short of angelic. Thank you, Dr. Siobhan. Thank you so much for caring for all of us on the worst days of our lives. And thank you to every person in the medical field.

    Thank you for showcasing an aspect of the path of SLP 😍😍 . Speaking from my own experience as someone who is pursuing the path of becoming an SLP, everyone always asks me what the field is and what SLPs do and so this is truly a great depiction of one of the many things SLPs do ❤️

    If drinking the feeds by mouth pour them over ice! I’ve found my patients tolerate them SO much more if they are super cold. Great video! I’ve always been fascinated by SLP as I worked with babies and small children post cardiac surgery with lots of swallowing struggles and their assessments seemed like magic haha.

    I'm late to the show! I have been binge watching your videos for the past twenty four hours!
    May I offer a patient's view of the SLP? Twelve years ago after a right side CVA, my SLP during our sessions together discovered that although I could read a written very well, I was demonstrating an inability to comprehend what I was reading. SLP's help stroke patients to relearn to think clearly, follow instructions. Re- use our mouths correctly. Tongue exercises to help swallowing .They do too much for one video. Love your videos!

    This video was so GREAT! As a dietitian and new professor I will definitely being sharing this with my students and colleagues because most RD's (including me when I first started clinical >15 yrs ago) thought SLP's only gave speech therapy not swallowing too. Luckily I am blessed to have several good friends also SLP's who I shared this video with them too. IT takes a village and thanks for creating this video to share this reality in clinical setting.

    Thank you for highlighting the work of an SLP! As an SLP, I often hear “I didn’t know a speech therapist does that, I thought you only teach kids how to say /r/!” I appreciate your willingness to learn and even observe/participate in the SLPs assessment in order to expand your knowledge about our scope of practice! I enjoyed this video! It’s always nice to work with MDs like you!! :)
