Specialist Support for Safe, Comfortable Feeding at Home
At Rosemont Care, we understand that using a feeding tube can feel daunting, both for the individual and their family. That’s why our compassionate, highly trained carers provide safe and reliable PEG feeding care at home, ensuring you or your loved one receive the nutrition, fluids, and medication needed to stay healthy and comfortable.
We proudly support clients across Kent, Essex, and surrounding areas, offering flexible care options tailored to individual needs and preferences.
What is PEG Feeding?
PEG (Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy) feeding is a method of delivering food, fluids, and medication directly into the stomach through a soft, flexible tube inserted via the abdominal wall.
This approach is used when someone is unable to eat or drink safely by mouth, but their digestive system is still able to process nutrition. PEG feeding ensures the body continues to receive the nutrients it needs to stay strong and maintain overall wellbeing.
PEG feeding may be required for individuals living with:
-
Neurological conditions such as stroke, Parkinson’s disease, or motor neurone disease (MND)
-
Head, neck, or oesophageal cancers
-
Severe swallowing difficulties (dysphagia)
-
Long-term illnesses or recovery from major surgery
Our goal is to provide reassurance and skilled support so that PEG feeding can be managed confidently and safely in the comfort of your own home.
Who Needs PEG Feeding Support?
A PEG feeding tube may be prescribed for anyone who cannot safely swallow food or fluids but still requires long-term nutritional support. This includes people recovering from illness, injury, or surgery, as well as those with ongoing conditions affecting their ability to eat.
With professional guidance and consistent care, PEG feeding can help individuals maintain their strength, hydration, and medication routine, all while continuing to live independently at home.
