Fi is joined by Manisha Uprety, a Nursing Specialist & Paediatric Complex Care Expert. She shares invaluable advice for parents navigating the often overwhelming transition from hospital to home with a tube-fed child.
Manisha stresses the importance of parents becoming the loudest voice for their child, ensuring they don't accept a discharge until they feel completely confident and equipped. She provides a clear framework for what to ask for (including written plans, extra training, and at-home support).
The conversation also covers practical day-to-day management, including what to do in an emergency, and how to get help for continence related issues.
