we need to be able to evidence start times and volume given for residents on PEG feeds. Currently we have to use the fluid tile, which suggests that they are taking fluid orally. not having a PEG feed tile also suggests that the resident is not receiving any nutrition as you cannot document it as breakfast, lunch etc because it is an intervention that may last for up to 16 hours.
Good morning Barbara,
We do offer a PEG Feed tile under the medical section of the care app. This icon allows you to evidence PEG Care, as well as food, fluid, nutritional supplements and medication in ml. Would you be able to advise if this suits your needs or if we need to make any further improvements to the icon?
