Upon successful completion of this module, participants will be able to:
- Explain the key principles of neuroplasticity and how these relate to dysphagia rehabilitation.
- Discuss rehabilitation considerations: motor versus sensory rehabilitation, skill versus strength training, using biofeedback.
