Lesson Outline
Santino was greeted by SLP as he completed his previous session. SLP gave him a choice of floor time or table, Santino requested table. The same pudding that was worked on Friday was visually presented and Santino showed interest (i.e. did not look away or whine like he did previous session). He watched as SLP opened the pudding with interest. He independently requested tickles and trains. As the trains were brought to the table, Santino reached for the Z-vibe with the spoon adaptive tip. SLP hand over hand assisted with bringing to his lips 10x w/o aversion. SLP provided sensory input to face as he would apply jaw pressure to the palm of hand. Santino does not present with oral aversions to touch (without food). With pudding, he assisted in scooping into the bowl with decreasing visual and tactile aversions. There was less aversion than Friday to the pudding. When directed to "tap to lips", Santino refused. While playing with train tracks, SLP tapped pudding on lips, he immediately licked off the first trial. With additional trials, he would wait a few seconds and then lick his lips while playing or lick his lips with therapist model. This is significantly improvement. He has not yet independently brought food to his mouth however he is continuing to improve with allowing food/oral motor tools to come to his mouth with less guard. Feeding therapy is continuing to remain positive as we continue to work on shifting his vision of food. While assisting with clean up, Santino threw away the pudding and participated in the process with ease. I will continue to target multiple puree type consistencies. Overall, it was a good session. I will see him Friday
