Nutrition Support
PHS registered dietitians* specialize in the complex care of pediatric patients, including partial or complete nutrition support. They work with your full care team to provide comprehensive nutrition plans designed exclusively for kids. This may include nutritional assessments and follow-up, nutritional monitoring and intervention, and any other assistance required to meet your child’s nutrition goals.
Coordination between families and medical teams about a child’s feeding support needs:
- Clinical support for children receiving nutrition services
- Support to improve a child’s tolerance of formula
- Phone consults for nutrition-related questions or concerns
- Written education materials on various nutrition topics
- Specialized nutrition-assessments, monitoring, intervention, and education designed exclusively for kids
Formula
We recognize that every child has unique clinical nutritional requirements. PHS has an expansive inventory of formulas that accommodates these differences, whether for sole nutrition or supplemental needs.
*Nutrition support from PHS dietitians is not available in all locations. There are set criteria for clients that will be actively followed by a PHS dietitian. Contact PHS for more information.
PHS Patient Story
Meet Joe’Von
Born at 23 weeks with short-bowel syndrome, esophageal reflux, non-compaction cardiomyopathy, Joe’Von couldn’t absorb nutrients and had a very strong food aversion. PHS pharmacists, dietitians, infusion specialists, and private duty nurses partnered with health care professionals to begin weaning him off TPN and retrain his body to absorb nutrients. Today, Joe’Von is doing great! He is growing and exceeding all expectations.
