Abstract

Methods and systems for treatment of feeding disorders in individuals by a multi-disciplinary team comprising medical, behavioral, nutritional, and oral-motor skill professionals and/or specialists. For example, in one embodiment, a subject may go through treatment that comprises four phases/process: screening, assessment, intervention, and discharge. The screening process may determine the subject's eligibility for the treatment. The assessment process may establish a baseline from which the specific treatment is determined. The intervention process generally implements the treatment through daily “doses” of treatment meal sessions. The discharge process may ensure that the treatment gains made during the intervention phase are carried into the subject's daily life.
