Safe, Role-Appropriate Skills for Enteral Feeding Support

This practical, scenario-based short course equips healthcare support workers with the knowledge and skills needed to safely assist people with Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy (PEG) and Percutaneous Endoscopic Jejunostomy (PEJ) enteral feeding under clinical delegation.

The course emphasises the critical differences between PEG and PEJ tubes, clean technique, safe positioning, equipment checks, site and tube care, early recognition of complications, clear documentation, and escalation pathways — all drawn from clinical guidance and real workplace care plans.

Designed for support workers in aged care, disability, and home care settings, this course builds your confidence to provide safe, person-centred support within your defined role boundaries.

Why This Course Matters

Enteral feeding support is a high-responsibility task. Mistakes w,hether in technique, positioning, or recognising warning signs, can directly harm the people in your care. Yet many support workers are expected to assist with PEG and PEJ feeds with minimal formal training. This course changes that. By working through realistic scenarios drawn from clinical practice, you’ll learn not just what to do, but why, so you can make safe, informed decisions even when situations don’t go to plan. Complete it online in your own time and walk away genuinely prepared.
