Supporting enteral feeding & gastrointestinal nutrition
by providing nutritional care specialised just for you
We are here to help…
Feeding tubes – We are experts in helping you manage your feeding tube and ensuring that we eliminate any stress or worry you have in managing this at home. Whether your feeding tube is new or has been in for a while, we can help to work with you to recommend which feeding tube is right for you.
We will work with you to ensure you are getting the optimal amount of nutrition and hydration each day.
Training sessions – As experts in enteral feeding, we provide training and advice to schools, family members and carers to ensure everyone in your care team has the most up-to-date knowledge and advice.
Dietary advice – we can provide individual dietary advice to help manage your condition and ensure the dietary changes also fit in with your lifestyle. Whether you have IBS, IBD, coeliac disease, liver disease or diabetes, we can work with you to help you achieve your goals through tailored dietary advice.
Welcome, I’m Jenna…
I have been working as a dietitian for 15 years with most of these spent in the public hospital setting. I have developed a strong clinical background and passion in the area of gastrointestinal nutrition and am thrilled to be able to offer my knowledge and support to clients on the Mornington Peninsula.
I am passionate about helping people improve their quality of life and better manage chronic disease or disability through optimising their nutrition.
I have a sound knowledge of enteral feeding and have strong links to a team of experts including GPs, nurses and gastroenterologists – all of whom are important for anyone living with a feeding tube to ensure they receive the holistic care they need.
Whether your goals are around improving your symptoms, weight management or helping you to better manage your health through diet – I am here to educate, support and guide you every step of the way.
See what my client’s are saying…
“We started with Jenna a few months ago. While our participant was in hospital, Jenna cared for Missy. Jenna was really proactive with supporting staff and participant in training Peg Feeds and setting up a daily regime.
Jenna has continued to be actively involved and is a great source knowledge and a great communicator.
Thank you, Jenna, our participant’s health, and quality of life has improved, since you’ve been a part of her care team.”
