Gastrostomy (PEG) Care at Home

Specialist PEG Care Delivered in the Comfort of Your Home

At Benopa Care, we provide specialist Gastrostomy (PEG) care at home, helping individuals with complex nutritional needs remain safe, comfortable and independent in familiar surroundings.

Our appropriately trained carers support people who receive nutrition, hydration or medication through a gastrostomy tube (PEG), working in accordance with personalised care plans and clinical guidance.

We work closely with families and healthcare professionals to deliver safe, compassionate and person-centred care that promotes comfort, dignity and quality of life.

What Is Gastrostomy (PEG) Care?

A Percutaneous Endoscopic Gastrostomy (PEG) is a feeding tube placed directly into the stomach to provide nutrition, fluids and medication when someone cannot eat or drink safely by mouth.

People may require PEG support because of neurological conditions, stroke, cancer, swallowing difficulties or other complex health needs.

Our carers provide day-to-day support in accordance with the individual's care plan while working alongside healthcare professionals where appropriate.
