Tube feeding
Tube feeding is a way to give nutrition to your child’s body to grow when they are unable to eat enough. It can be useful for children who:
- cannot eat or drink enough to maintain nutrition
- are unable to eat because they cannot chew/swallow properly/safely
- need extra nutrition for growth.
