The Pediatric Feeding Disorders Program provides an interdisciplinary approach to the assessment and treatment of feeding disorders. Our feeding team includes experts from medicine, psychology, nursing, nutrition, speech and/or occupational therapy, and social work. The interdisciplinary team works to develop specific goals for your child’s feeding behavior. Feeding behaviors are objectively measured, treatment decisions are data based and outcomes are assessed regularly throughout the program. A primary goal is to establish feeding patterns, which can be maintained in the home and other environments. Thus, caregiver training is an essential component to the success of the program.
