Enternal Feeding Care

Enteral feeding is crucial for individuals who cannot meet their dietary needs through oral intake. At Jovimed, we prioritize safety, dignity, and physiological compatibility, adhering to global standards while providing care for residents with neurological impairments, age-related dysphagia, and chronic conditions.

 

Enteral feeding helps provide nutrition directly to the stomach or small intestine through tubes, such as a nasogastric (NG) tube, a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) tube, or a jejunostomy tube. This method is often necessary for residents in nursing homes, especially those with cognitive impairments. It is used for people who have difficulty swallowing, known as dysphagia, which can happen due to strokes, neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s, head and neck cancers, or during recovery from serious illness.

 

Our certified caregivers have successfully completed the Hands-On workshop. Jovimed's enteral feeding program exemplifies our dedication to evidence-based, compassionate long-term care. Providing optimal enteral care necessitates not only technical precision but also a deep respect for the individual narratives associated with each patient.
