Interested to host a F.O.T.T.® Course?
If an institution/clinic is possibly interested in organising a F.O.T.T.® Course
Introduce the F.O.T.T.® concept in your institution/clinic and thereby provide access to it for your staff and/or external interested parties from nursing-therapeutic professional groups, so that it can benefit clients with central lesions, including neurogenic dysphagia, in the long term.
Central lesions often affect one or more facial-oral functions such as breathing, swallowing of saliva, food intake (eating and drinking), speaking, oral hygiene and/or lead to sensory-motor and perceptual impairments of the face. The whole-body disturbance patterns are considered in the context of the existing disease and the resulting problems in everyday life.
Contact for further information
If you are interested, we will be happy to provide further information on the conditions required for the implementation of an F.O.T.T.® Course, e.g., materials, premises and costs. In this case, please contact the managing director, Ms.
F.O.T.T.® Basic knowledge for newcomers
- Ground Course
For a start we recommend the F.O.T.T.® Ground Course, which provides the basic knowledge of the F.O.T.T.® concept. This interprofessional five-day course in theory and practice, including an e-learning module, on the rehabilitation of the oral tract and face in patients with central lesions, including neurogenic dysphagia, is based on the Bobath concept. It is designed for participants who have completed professional training and work therapeutically with their patients.
