In this episode, we conclude the month long topic of swallow impairment in Parkinson's disease. I share treatment recommendations with you from two interviews conducted with local speech and language pathologist who specialize in swallowing therapy. Juliana and Tiffany share practice and very useful advice that care partners and caregivers will benefit from to help their loved one. 

I also present the recommendations from a multidisciplinary consensus panel that published their treatment recommendations for Swallowing impairment in September of 2021. I offer a final conclusion on swallowing impairment. I hope that this information will be useful for you and your loved one with Parkinson's disease.
