Nancy's lectures are always down to earth, easy to follow and very informative. She always relates her lectures to actual practice and application through use of her own work with patients. It's appreciated to have someone who has been in the trenches, provide this valuable insight, as well as validate or even debunk research as it applies to real practice and not just theories.

The anatomy information with diagrams of the swallow-respiratory nerves and muscles, as well as the, videos of the respiratory and visual structures in motion was very helpful. Current applicable research shared about various conditions that impact respiration and thus swallowing was very helpful. Some of the diagram labels were small to see on a computer screen, but most were visible, and it was especially helpful when the presenter highlighted the names of structures she was talking about.

There was a lot of review information about muscles, but little information about how re-memorizing that vocabular / specific pathophysiology would impact my practice. I did appreciate the acknowledgement of what we don't know from research and the summary of how various exercises can impact the swallow. I also appreciate learning about the importance of the breathing -swallow cycle.

This course contained a wealth of information needed for an SLP to begin to be effective in identifying and managing individuals with dysphagia. There is definitely a lot to learn. The pictures, videos and diagrams of the structure, and function of the muscles and nerves involved in the swallow function were very helpful. Ms. Swigert's presentation was well organized and contained resources and a "Cranial Nerve Assessment of Motor Function' to be used during a clinical swallow evaluation.
