To any OT:
I have a meeting with the Cleft Palate team Thursday and would like
to be well armed with information regarding special courses/training for
OTs in oral training. Our OT's approach every consult in a newborn with a
bottle to "test" his sucking. Our OT's do not appear to have the skills
that I think they should have. Any information on what the general
training approach might be, any special course work available or
certification opportunities that increase the skills would be appreciated.
Thank you. Post to the list or privately.
