Dysphagia and Medicines - e-Learning for Healthcare

This new elearning session describes how patients with swallowing difficulties may need changes to their medicines in order to take them safely, and the actions that carers and care home staff need to take.

SPS commentary:

The Dysphagia elearning programme has been designed to support knowledge and understanding of the management of dysphagia, specifically in the context of a care home environment. The sessions will also be useful to those supporting people with dysphagia in other environments, including hospital and community settings.
