Dysphagia Inservice Pre Post Test

This document contains pre- and post-tests for a dysphagia in-service. The pre-test asks questions about dysphagia, thickened liquids, and liquid consistency levels. Dysphagia is difficulty swallowing that can increase risks like choking, malnutrition, and dehydration. Thickeners are used to create different liquid consistencies, like nectar-like and honey-like, to help dysphagia patients swallow safely. Clear liquids are more transparent than full liquids. The post-test repeats the same questions to assess learning.
