Event Information
Course Description | This course explores the role of assessment in the context of a responsive approach to pediatric feeding challenges. While a comprehensive understanding of child factors is essential, environmental - and especially relational - factors may be overlooked. This course examines how and why to carefully assess feeding dynamics and their antecedents. There will be a brief look at the use of basic counseling skills in an assessment context, as well as an introduction to multiple assessment ‘lenses’.
Learning Outcomes | Participants will be able to:
- Describe the value of holistic assessment in the context of responsive feeding interventions
