| Description |
The impacts of pediatric feeding disorder (PFD) are far-reaching and may affect a child’s development, nutrition, and overall well-being. This presentation will examine the influence of PFD on daily life, social participation, and children’s quality of life, as well as on financial burdens and unmet social needs. By highlighting the current research along with stories of the lived experience of a mother with a child with PFD, this presentation will raise important issues and considerations for care teams, PFD advocates, and community members. Implications for assessment and treatment, and family resources to support overall welfare will also be identified.
