Dysphagia training programmes: 'fixes that fail' or effective inter-disciplinary working?
1Speech and Language Therapy Department, Stepping Hill Hospital, Poplar Grove, Stockport SK2 7JE.
Abstract:
A number of factors influencing the development of dysphagia training programmes are identified, some of which relate to cultural issues and to the way systems operate. Lessons can be learned from current theories of relevance to effecting change in professionals' working practice. These lessons can be applied beyond dysphagia to other areas in which speech and language therapists are involved.
