Practical methodologies of day time toilet training procedures will be highlighted. Research related to transfer of stimulus control from diapers or undergarments to the toilet will be discussed. Developing practical solutions to several different challenges associated with training individuals with toileting challenges will also be explored. This panel of experts has vast clinical experience with toileting procedures and will help you to problem solve unique challenges during a question and answer time and share their research with you.
