Description of the course: This interactive course is designed for clinicians who are new to Phonation Resistance Training Exercises (PhoRTE®) voice therapy. The Friday evening and Saturday morning sessions deliver the full Introduction to PhoRTE® curriculum, mirroring the content and structure of the asynchronous course and providing a strong, evidence-based foundation for treating individuals with presbyphonia.
This course will utilize case-based learning, demonstrations, and hands on opportunities to train clinicians in the execution of PhoRTE to treat vocal aging (i.e., presbyphonia). The course involves approximately 1 hour and 20 minutes of pre-work to be completed before the live online portion of the workshop. Pre-work will require participants to view a video that discusses who our aging patients are and provides an evidence-based examination of voice therapy for aging voice.
PhoRTE® is a Level 1B voice therapy to treat presbyphonia (that is, published prospective, randomized, and controlled clinical trial). This intervention is guided by the principles of exercise physiology and motor learning with a strong emphasis on understanding the values of successful aging to promote communication, socialization, and vocation in our older adult population. Clinicians will leave with greater confidence, clinical clarity, and practical tools that can be used immediately in their clinical practice. ASHA CEUs will be offered.
Pre-Attendance Requirement: All attendees of the Introductory Course must complete a foundation learning asynchronous video module prior to the start of the course. The module is approximately 1 hour and 20 minutes. Attendees must also read the PhoRTE® Clinician Manual.
