What participants think of their Safe Swallowing Dysphagia Management & IDDSI Education Course

Barbara Braithwaite, Safe Swallowing Team • November 14, 2021

Here are some quick reviews of our Course:




I thoroughly enjoyed learning the Safe Swallowing Education Course, it clarified questions I had within my SIL House here in Albury. 1 of my participants is a lazy chewer and has mild epilepsy. This course helped me identify where I sit with her. I will follow up with my staff in our next Team meeting and have a clear discussion with them also.

Thank you so much for assisting with our recent training, Safe Swallowing Education Course. As you know, we work with people with disabilities and this course has been fantastic for staff to have a better understanding when working with our participants around mealtime supervision and what to look for if they suspect some swallowing issues.


You have made it very easy for staff to access the course and for them to complete the course, they were thrilled to receive their certificates.

Thanks again

The Safe Swallowing Education Course is a great program that provided me with more knowledge about safe food practices for people with swallowing difficulties. It’s effective and informative.

The slides were great and it was information relevant to the subject which made it easy 

Thank you.

The Course was very clear and a fabulous resource for staff in nursing homes.

I appreciate doing the course as it truly enlightened me to this problem. I did not know about the difficulties of people with safe swallowing when eating.

No ‘one size fits all’: is technology enough to address loneliness?

By Barbara Braithwaite • November 30, 2023
There are limitless benefits to the rapidly increasing use of technology across all ages. Research into high usage suggests social isolation can be an unwanted ‘side effect’.

Reducing Risk in Aged Care

By Barbara Braithwaite • November 23, 2023
I read an interesting article a short while ago by Nick Burnett MD Team Teach Australia & New Zealand about minimising restrictive practices and reducing risk for all in aged care, but of course this can be implemented more widely.
