We are sad to announce that a much loved and respected member of our faculty; Beth McManus is taking a break from teaching for a while to spend time with her family.

Beth recently spoke at the National Association of Neonatal Therapists (NANT) annual conference and was extremely well received by all.

We are honored that she will be teaching 3 more dates for us this year, and we want to make sure that you don’t miss them:

Advanced Clinical Practice in the NICU
June 9-10, 2017 – Pittsburgh, PA
October 6-7, 2017 – Indianapolis, IN
November 3-4, 2017 – San Leandro, CA

This intermediate-advanced course will focus on clinical decision-making for medically and developmentally complex patients in the NICU and transition to home and EI. Emphasis will be on in-depth knowledge of pathophysiology of common NICU diagnoses and special populations; choice and interpretation of evaluation tools and evidence-based therapeutic interventions, implementing developmentally supportive oral feeding interventions, and transition to post-NICU care. Labs and video case analysis to allow attendees to integrate course material for complex clinical decisions around behavioral, developmental and feeding intervention.

On behalf of all our community of therapists we would like to thank Beth for sharing her knowledge, experience and skills with us.

We wish Beth all the very best, and will stay in touch with her.

NANT 7 – Amazing Experience for all Neonatal Therapists

WOW!

Carol and I have just returned from an absolutely amazing few days surrounded by almost 500 passionate, dedicated and influential neonatal therapists.

We heard their needs, their suggestions and their thoughts for the future and were consumed with their absolute devotion to their babies and parents.

As professional partners with NANT (the National Association of Neonatal Therapists) we were honored to attend their annual conference in Phoenix. Three full days listening to experts in the field of feeding, research, advanced clinical reasoning….. and the support of our most fragile population.

We were privileged to be able to spend time with many, discuss CEU needs, hear the excitement and need to bring new faculty and courses to their facilities, but also to hear about frustrations and how they want to bring about change. We admire the absolute passion and drive.

We spent time with some of our own dedicated faculty members and were excited to speak to potential new speakers (watch this space!) about new content and ideas for new courses. 

Our deepest congratulations to Sue Ludwig and her dedicated team for the inspiration and support of this specialized, dedicated group of therapists

Carol and I came away with new found friends, and with a desire to be able to provide for the needs of these wonderful therapists.

For those of you who were there……. stay tuned …. we will be announcing the winners of our raffle very shortly 🙂
