About the Lunch & Learn:

Ever wondered how to tell if a feeding tube is truly a PEG or something else? Join our upcoming Lunch & Learn with Mark Storr from Avanos Medical, as he uncovers the nuances of feeding tube identification. Many tubes are labelled as a PEG, but understanding the differences is crucial for effective patient care. Mark will guide you through identifying various feeding tubes, provide a practical checklist for accurate differentiation, and equip you with the knowledge to make informed decisions about managing feeding tube issues.
