Enteral Nutrition
Enteral nutrition is planned as part of a careful assessment. Care is taken to involve the client, explaining the principles of enteral nutrition and taking account of clients daily routines and capacity to self-manage all or part of the agreed management routine.
How to receive enteral nutrition from Focus Healthcare
Any person needing enteral nutrition can receive it from Focus Healthcare. All that is required is a telephone call to 1300 363 262 (24 hours / day) or you can fill out our referral form.
Our contact centre personnel will process the referral promptly and can advise you of charges and options for payment and rebates (e.g. from health funds or the Department of Veterans Affairs (War Veterans).
Once a referral is received a ‘key’ nurse will be assigned to your care. This nurse is responsible for coordination of the services you received from Focus and for communication with other people who may be involved in your care e.g. your GP, a surgeon, Workcover and your family.
