HKD4200The participants will learn to diagnose dysarthria, dyspraxia (apraxia) and motor planning deficits when doing an evaluation. Hierarchical assessment criteria will be adapted to diagnose the muscle-based deficits in jaw-lip-tongue structure and functioning. Evaluation of oral functional activities in Respiration, Phonation, Resonance and Articulation will be based on the therapeutic techniques learned in OPT Level 1 workshop. Participants will be guided to write a comprehensive Oral Placement/ Feeding/ Speech Program Plan.
