Specialist PEG Care

At Katherine Harriet, we supply a specialist area of PEG care.

Last month, the team at Hereford Hospital visited us in the office to deliver their specialist PEG training, this enables our staff to be able to practice PEG care in the community.

In case you are wondering, PEG care refers to the management and maintenance of a Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy (PEG) tube, which is used to provide nutrition, fluids, and medications directly into the stomach for individuals who are unable to eat or swallow normally. PEG tubes are typically inserted through the abdominal wall into the stomach with the help of an endoscope.
