Despite the new branding from “Better Hearing and Speech Month” to “National Speech-Language-Hearing Month” we will continue to promote swallowing and swallowing disorders this month, which is such a huge part of our profession. Thank you to all the professionals in all aspects of the fields of speech pathology and audiology.

I have had this conversation with many patients and families over the years to help them better understand why I almost never recommend crushing medications

When someone with dementia has difficulty taking their pills, you may hear the recommendation to crush the pill and put it in a food or drink. But please know that not all pills can be crushed!

Crushing some medications can alter the effectiveness and safety. Even if a pill can be crushed, not all liquids or substances are suitable for mixing with them. Please talk to a doctor or pharmacist before altering the medication in any way.

DRS is proud to partner for a third year in a row with our affiliated international Dysphagia Societies, the European Society for Swallowing Disorders , the Japanese Society for Dysphagia Rehabilitation , and the Latin America Society for Dysphagia , to celebrate World Swallowing Day - December 12th!

This year DRS is sharing stories from 2023 World Dysphagia Summit from people with lived experience of dysphagia, who help us to understand and appreciate the central role that swallowing plays in our lives and the huge impact of dysphagia, not only on health and nutrition, but also on relationships and participation in everyday social activities, so many of which involve eating and drinking.
