£20.00

Location: Hilton Liverpool City Centre, 3 Thomas Steers Way, Liverpool, L1 8LW

Date: Thursday 15th May 2025

Time: 08:30 – 16:30

Our Gastrostomy Study is back for 2025, due to popular demand.

We have an exciting programme of speakers poised to share their experiences. With tips on tube placement, care and maintenance, ethical considerations in enteral feeding, and an insight into the goings-on in our technical lab, it will be an interesting day for everyone involved.

Who Is This For?

This day will suit anyone involved in the care of tube-fed patients, or who manage staff responsible for enteral maintenance.

Cost:

We fully fund these events ourselves, however, we do charge a ticket fee of £20, which we pass on in full to the charity PINNT (Patients on Intravenous & Nasogastric Nutrition Therapy).
