I had the wonderful opportunity to attend the 3rd Annual Pediatric Feeding Conference at CHOR. It was encouraging to see such a variety of interdisciplinary professionals, OTs, PTs, SLPs, collaborating for the benefit of the pediatric population. I learned about the vital role that pediatric dieticians play in planning a child’s dietary routine. I look forward to incorporating the new information I learned at the conference into my clinical experience.

I am grateful to have been given the opportunity to attend the 3rd Annual Children’s Hospital of Richmond Feeding Conference. Attending this conference has enhanced my education in the area of feeding and swallowing intervention for the pediatric population. Most importantly the content of this conference provided me with critical information in regards to treating children who experience food aversions which affects their nutritional well being and quality of life. The information obtained from this conference will be vital for future diagnostic and treatment implementation as I become a professional in the field of speech-language pathology.
