Enteral Nutrition Dietitian

Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy Nutritionist | PEG Dietitian
Enteral Nutrition Dietitian | PEG Dietitian | Sunshine Coast to Brisbane | Home Visits Available
Enteral Nutrition via a Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy (PEG) or Percutaneous Endoscopic Jejunostomy (PEJ) is the procedure of introducing a nutritionally complete liquid formula directly into an individual's stomach or small intestine via a tube. They are often used when an individual is no longer able to meet all of their nutrition requirements through oral consumption or if it is no longer safe to consume food orally.  

Enternal Nutrition via a PEG/PEJ is first implemented in a hospital where support is provided by the medical team including the clinical dietitian. Following discharge, to your home or support centre, you may require continued support by a private practice dietitian. This is where Simply Nutrition can offer assistance.

How we can help you.
PEG/PEJ feeding is a specialist area and requires dietitians with a unique skill set to provide assistance.

We will work with you to ensure your regime will fit with your home environment and lifestyle goals, ensuring you can continue to engage in the things you need or want to do. ​
