Yesterday, our paediatric nursing team learnt about the latest developments in Blenderised tube feeding, or BTF. This method lets blended foods and liquids, like homemade smoothies, pureed baby food, or formula, be directly fed through a feeding tube.

The exciting news is that a regulatory-approved feeding pump is now available in Australia and New Zealand that can deliver thick, blended formulas. These formulas are classified as Level 2, 3, and 4 under the International Dysphagia Diet Standardisation Initiative (IDDSI) guidelines.

If you have any questions about BTF and applying it to your care routine, reach out to our team at hello@athomecare.au or contact us via the details on athomecare.au/contact-us/

Today, we celebrate the heart of our communities, the support workers, nurses, disability and health professionals, and everyday individuals who dedicate their lives to caring for others.

Their compassion, resilience, and commitment make a profound difference every single day. Whether in hospitals, disability services, the community, or at home, these individuals are the backbone of our neighbourhoods and societies.

Let’s take a moment to recognise their invaluable contributions and advocate for continued appreciation for the care workforce.

💙 Thank you for all that you do.
