Feeding problems in CSHCN Children with Disabilities

[Judith Powell]

Carolyn,
In  response to your request for a nutrition  reference that can be used by 
other health professionls when working with parents of children with 
special health needs...Nutrition and Feeding for Persons with Special 
Needs: A Practical Guide and Resource Manual (2nd ed (1992) is the last 
one I have) by Cecilia Rokusek, EdD, RD and Eberhard Heinrichs, MD, 
FAAP.  I recommend this resource most often because it is easy to use 
with parents, there is a permission to duplicate in the introductory 
pages (always a plus), and contains a great deal of solid information.  
Now, I'm hoping it is still available.  They listed a toll free number in 
the book (1-800-658-3080).  Cecilia is no longer at the University of 
South Dakota, but you can write to the SDUAP, Interdisciplinary Center 
for Disabilities, Vermillion, South Dakota 57069 and ask about the status 
of the publication.  Someone else out on the list may want to verify 
this.  Judy
