Health problems arising from a disease, disorder or condition may lead to nutritional insufficiencies at any age, disabling individuals to meet their dietary requirements via normal food. Getting the right nutritional care in a timely manner can help reduce medical complications, support recovery and independence, and lower healthcare costs.
With age, the need for an adequate intake of essential nutrients becomes even more important. Typical changes are a slowing metabolism and lower bioavailability, leading to dietary frailty. Nutritional shortfalls or even deficiencies may be overlooked when aging. Through our advanced medical nutrition solutions, senior adults meet nutritional compliance, avoid ailment and improve their quality of life.
Oral Nutritional Supplements (ONS) are effective, non-invasive solutions recommended when recovering from acute illness or during malnutrition. Patients are typically able to consume normal food but may not meet the recommended dietary needs.
Enteral Nutrition is administered to patients who are unable to get sufficient nutrition orally even though the gastrointestinal tract is functioning. This requires feeding into the gastrointestinal tract using a tube.
Parenteral Nutrition covers ‘intravenous feeding’, where nutrition is administered directly into the blood circulation, bypassing the gastrointestinal tract. This is needed when a patient is unable to get sufficient nutrition through normal food, oral nutritional supplements or through enteral nutrition.
