World Swallowing Day was started on December 12, 2011 as a global awareness campaign geared towards both healthcare professionals and the public in order to spread the knowledge about normal swallowing and swallowing disorders, their causes, assessment, complications, and management.
If you are a healthcare professional who screens or assesses patients for dysphagia, we encourage you to take part in this worldwide event by completing a short 9-question survey created by the European Society for Swallowing Disorders.
