Tube Weaning
Capernaum addresses feeding tube concerns.
Due to medical complications in some of our clients, many have had to be placed on a feeding tube. The feeding tube can be a significant cause of anxiety and concern for parents, with the most-asked question, “When can my child get off the tube?”
We have taken this question to heart and developed a Tube Weaning Program to address parents’ concerns about feeding tubes. The program will identify where your child is in the process of full oral feeding and work with you to get to that goal. If your child has been identified as appropriate for weaning, our team will put together a specific plan that reduces tube feedings and calories to work with your child’s body, thereby increasing hunger and oral intake.


Our therapy staff will work closely with the family to provide support during the therapy process.
