Caring for a family member on tube feeding means every small detail matters — hygiene, correct placement, and comfort during each change. We understand that hospital visits for something as routine as a Ryle's (nasogastric) tube replacement can be exhausting for both patients and caregivers. That's why our nursing team now brings this entire procedure home, following the same clinical standards used in a hospital setting.
At Prime Senior Care, we begin each visit by reviewing the doctor's prescription and preparing sterile supplies, including the tube, lubricant, syringe, and fixation materials. Our nurses remove the old tube gently, insert a new one with care, and confirm placement using accepted clinical methods before feeding resumes. We regularly support patients recovering from strokes, neurological conditions, or oral surgeries who depend on enteral feeding. Families also receive guidance on hygiene, routine care, and signs that need medical attention.
