Through this on-demand course you'll learn how to assess swallowing across different contexts, interpret dysphagia findings,  and communicate confidently with multidisciplinary teams.

Bite-sized Dysphagia Education for busy SLPs

At the start of 2026 I decided to offer LIVE low cost webinars to speech pathologists who are busy.

I present on a dysphagia topic for 20 mins, leave 10 mins for question time and each speed session comes with it's own bonus resource.

There's no replay available so be there or...!

Hi, I'm Chantelle Hutchinson

 

I've been a speech pathologist for 15 years, working across home-based, community, and inpatient rehab settings, where I've held many roles, including clinician, research assistant, guest lecturer, clinical manager, and supervisor.

After supervising clinicians at every level, I kept seeing the same gap... Therapists were leaving university without the tools to assess dysphagia confidently, especially outside of a hospital setting. 

Dysphagia Bites was built to fill that gap with practical, evidence-based education that reflects the realities of your work.

I'm excited to offer courses and workshops, as well as practical education on the Dysphagia Research Bites podcast.

 

  

You can also find me on Instagram: @dysphagiacommunity, or on your favourite podcast platform hosting Dysphagia Research Bites!
