Oral Feeding Tips

Purpose of Oral Feeding

To provide adequate nutrition and be in control of a proper diet to the your loved ones.

As people grow older, their body system also degenerates which affects the digestion and nutrient absorption.

Reminders:

4. Small amounts at each feeding. Cut the food into small bite portions, to

prevent choking.

4. Don't underfeed/overfeed the patient

5. Don't force the patient to eat all the food that presented on the plate.
