Natural Feeding Techniques

An outstanding video that shows caregiving staff how to manage feeding difficulties of clients in the late stages of Alzheimer's disease. Through the use of the techniques and procedures outlined in this tape, most of these clients can continue to be fed orally rather than with a gastrostomy tube. The staff demonstrates that natural feeding techniques can decrease infection, increase client comfort and improve the quality of life for the resident. This new video is invaluable for staff of the long-term special care units, home health workers, and even family members.
