Dysphagia Training NSW: Supporting Safer Mealtimes in Aged Care and Disability Services
Providing safe mealtime support requires more than understanding swallowing difficulties. It requires staff to work consistently as a team and have confidence in supporting residents with dysphagia.
At Swallowing & Dysphagia Support, we understand the challenges faced by aged care providers. Staff work across different shifts, new team members join regularly, and residents' needs change over time. Ongoing education is essential to support safe, consistent, and person-centred care.
Our Dysphagia Training NSW program is designed specifically for aged care teams and can be delivered through live online training, making it accessible for facilities across New South Wales.
