What is the correct way for bedridden patients to feed or drink?
1, the eating period of patients is the best time to carry out diet health education. Nurses should answer and explain patients' dietary problems in a purposeful, targeted and timely manner, and help patients correct bad eating habits and eating behaviors that violate medical principles. 2. When feeding, first put the spoon in contact with the patient's lips, and then feed the food into his mouth; Generally, the patient is given a sip of soup to make his mouth moist and stimulate his appetite, and then he is fed the staple food. When feeding soup, let the patient open his mouth, raise his head appropriately, and slowly pour it into his mouth from the side of his tongue. Don't pour directly from the middle to avoid choking the trachea. The amount and speed of each feeding should be moderate and the temperature should be appropriate. Rice and vegetables, solid and liquid food should be fed in turn. For patients who are blind or whose eyes are covered, in addition to observing the above feeding requirements, they should also be informed of the feeding contents to increase their interest in eating and promote the secretion of digestive juice.
