This is the best G-tube feeding instructional video I’ve seen. “That Nurse Prof” is obviously a “natural born teacher”. I hope she gets a position in a nursing school. Nursing needs good teachers like this!

Although i have been an LPN for 18 years, it's been in a clinical setting. Due to cutbacks, I lost my job of 18 years. I decided to try LTC against other nurses' advice. One of the nurses told me to look at this channel. I see why. Thank you so much. It's only been 6 days of orientation, but I am certain that LTC is not so bad.

My dad is being discharged from a nursing home soon & the staff were to 'train' us as caregivers on how to administer the meds & do tube feeding. Your 8 min video was FAAAR more informative and helpful than what was provided to me at the facility.
So very terrified and don't really feel confident I can do this but I'm going to try.
Thank you so much for creating this video!

Thanks for the video. I'm in the UK and support a client with gastrostomy feeding. However he has recently had his meds changed from oral to via gastrostomy tube using crushed meds. I was surprised to discover that his tube does not have a port otber than his normal peg feed port. We've been told that its fine to administer crushed meds via his feeding tube. I've never seen anyone give meds this way. Ive always assumed a separate meds port is essential. Does tthis sound right? obviously we'll ise plent of flushes tbeoughout. Thanks 👍
