There's no need to unsettle your patient, add additional stress to them or other allied staff, or relocate a patient from the facility to conduct high-quality instrumental swallowing evaluations. Our licensed, specially trained, and nationally certified Speech-Language Pathologists travel to contracted medical facilities across Oklahoma to carry out the endoscopic assessment procedure, upon the request of a licensed speech pathologist and a physician's order. The results from these assessments provide physicians and other care providers with concrete evidence of swallowing impairment, characteristics of swallowing defined by an evidence-based nominal rating scale, and the severity of the condition. We also offer recommendations for administering hydration, oral feeding, and/or feeding rehabilitation for your patient. Reach out to us at 405-766-1238 so we can discuss your patient’s needs.

While the process of swallowing food appears to be quite simple to the average person, it’s actually a complex system of several steps that must occur in the right order and at the right time. When one step fails, a swallowing disorder can occur.

At the beginning of 2018, Freeborn Dysphagia Associates made the decision to provide mobile swallow studies using flexible endoscopy (FEES). This allowed skilled nursing facilities and hospitals to access state-of-the-art FEES technology right at the patient's bedside. The company was established in Oklahoma with the aim of delivering top-tier medical services with a focus on quality and compassion to all patients who require an instrumental swallow study. Our mission is to provide a detailed and clear understanding of a person's swallowing disorder, contribute to education on swallowing disorders, deliver high-quality evaluations, and support speech and language pathologists treating patients by providing a report that will aid both the patient and the treating speech pathologist with a precise plan of care. If you have loved ones or patients needing this type of service, please reach out to us at 405-766-1238.

Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia are frequently referred to as "the Long Goodbye". I would also characterize the disease as a prolonged journey. Just like most journeys, you can meticulously plan, but you may discover that the map isn't fully detailed. Unexpected detours can arise at any moment. One of the most prevalent challenges faced by those with dementia is a swallowing disorder, known as dysphagia. This article will explain the dementia detour with dysphagia - https://swallowingdisorderfoundation.com/dementia-detour-dysphagia/ -1627 .
