About the webinar:
Low-profile feeding tubes can offer adult patients greater comfort and confidence in managing their nutrition care. In this session, dietitian Kim Johnston will explore when, why and how to consider transitioning from a standard to a low-profile feeding tube, sharing practical guidance on device selection, troubleshooting and collaborating with patients to support a smooth transition. You’ll also hear from an adult patient who uses a low-profile feeding tube, as he shares his experiences of making the switch, how it has enhanced his quality of life and what helped him feel supported throughout the process.
