March 24 & March 25, 2017
Presented by: Speech-Language Pathology, Otolaryngology, and the Craniofacial Center at Cincinnati Children’s
COURSE DESCRIPTION Children with speech and resonance disorders due to cleft plate or other causes of velopharyngeal dysfunction present challenges for speech-language pathologists (SLPs), otolaryngologists, plastic surgeons, and other craniofacial specialists. This two day course is designed to provide current, practical information for professionals who treat individuals with cleft palate, velopharyngeal dysfunction, oropharyngeal anomalies, or other abnormalities that affect speech and/or resonance. A nasopharyngoscopy lab will be included in the course. Those professionals who serve on a craniofacial team will find this seminar to be particularly valuable.
