Understanding Gastrostomy or Enteral Tube:
For those who are unable to consume food orally, a gastrostomy tube may be surgically inserted directly into the stomach or small intestine. This tube sits externally on the abdomen and allows for the administration of specially formulated enteral nutrition, as prescribed by a dietician, to ensure that all nutritional and hydration needs are met.
Understanding Gastrostomy Care and Feeding Support:
As part of our Healthcare at Home services, our Care Professionals are trained to provide comprehensive care for various types of enteral feeding tubes. This includes cleaning the stoma, performing necessary tube adjustments, administering medications, providing bolus feeds, setting up feeding pumps, and troubleshooting any issues that may arise. Our goal is to make tube feeding as smooth and comfortable as possible, so you can live your life with confidence and peace of mind.
