SUMMARY:BECKMAN ORAL MOTOR ASSESSMENT AND INTERVENTION© COURSE
DESCRIPTION:BECKMAN ORAL MOTOR ASSESSMENT AND INTERVENTION© COURSE\nAbout the Workshop\nOral motor impairment presents a variety of challenges for both the individual affected\, and for the care team providing intervention. Often the individual experiencing oral motor difficulties is not able to follow commands. The person may not be eating or taking fluids orally\, which reduces the opportunities for observation of oral movement patterns. The majority of baseline protocols currently available require at least minimal direction-following skills. The protocol developed by Beckman uses mechanical muscle responses\, which are not mediated cognitively\, to baseline the response to pressure and movement\, including range of movement\, variety of movement\, strength of movement and control of movement for the lips\, cheeks\, jaw and tongue. \nIn this two-day course\, participants will actively participate in hands-on practice for compensatory handling techniques for the following concerns: tonic bite\, tonic bite on an utensil\, slow oral transit\, tongue thrust\, cough\, gag and vomit. The participants will complete an oral motor protocol with each other\, analyze the results\, and discuss data tracking. Participants will also complete hands-on practice for specific oral motor interventions to address deficit areas discovered during baseline assessment. \nAbout the Instructor\nMr. Stephen Chan is an Occupational Therapist whose experience in learning the Beckman Oral Motor Protocol was started by staying two weeks at Debra Beckman’s Clinic at Florida\, US in 2005. In the same year\, he learnt the protocol formally from the 2-days Beckman Oral Motor Assessment and Intervention Course in San Jose of US. After that\, Stephen completed his Master dissertation with Beckman Oral Motor Protocol on treating drooling in students with severe intellectual disability. Stephen Chan also completed a project funded by Quality Education Fund (project no.: 2004/0140) on educating parents for oral motor intervention with multimedia.\nMr. Stephen Chan had worked in a special school and applied the Beckman Oral Motor Protocol to children with severe intellectual disability and cerebral palsy. He is also experienced in using this protocol in clinic for people with feeding problems and developmental disabilities (e.g. autism\, developmental delay\, etc.). \nLeaflet: 2023.10-Beckman-Certificate-Course-Info.-by-CREST (1)
