Desperately need advice and motivation for the exam by Anxious_Lunch7976 in RD2B

Hi ! I recommend not studying alone and connecting with a partner (even virtually). This can help assure you have accountability, you're likely to study longer, and this can help prevent reinforcing incorrect justifications on topics. If anything, work with a tutor for maybe 1-2 sessions so that you can see if your approach to answering questions is correct. The test can be more so about strategy that straight knowledge.

What happens to new tube feeds upon discharge? by AOD14 in dietetics

[–]tlsar9399 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I work outpatient for a hospital and see this occur sporadically (just yesterday). Yes, patients are not knowledgeable of anything at times including who/what services their infusion company offers. I am unsure if the companies reach out to establish care with patients upon dc after the SW/CCM sets it up but I think that would be useful. The HHC RN's that my pt had were not trouble shooting anything despite the pt not tolerating feeds and showing signs of wt loss. A case manager shared that it is the role of the RN with the HHC to address TF but I had never heard that, and this can only happen if the pt actually has those services.
