  • Does the resident receive tube feedings (e.g., g-tube, peg tube, total parenteral nutrition (TPN), naso-gastric)? 

  • If tube feeding is infusing, is the head of the bed elevated at least 30-45 degrees? 

  • Is the feeding properly labeled (e.g., date, time initiated, nurses’ initials)? 

  • Does the amount remaining seem reasonable? 

  • Is the site clean and free from signs and symptoms of infection (e.g., redness, drainage, odors)?
