The story concerned a young man suffering from muscular dystrophy who had swallowing difficulties. He was referred to the Dietetics Team from the Page 1 of 16 Public 19.10.02 - Board of Directors Minutes Public.pdf Page 1 of 16 Overall Page 9 of 295 Speech and Language team. When he was first visited his weight was stable, but earlier this year it dropped significantly until the young man had a BMI of 12.4 and was frail and very poorly. The Team discussed with the young man and his family the option of a PEG tube so he could be fed directly into his stomach and this was something they wanted to try. However because he was so malnourished he needed to gain weight before that procedure could take place. The young man therefore had a NG tube (down his nose) fitted in a short space of time and as a result he gained weight very quickly and was able to go on a family holiday to Florida. On his return he started to have feeding/swallowing difficulties and again the tube needed to be replaced. Since then he has been able to manage and now has a much better quality of life at a stable weight and was now waiting to have the PEG tube fitted. Ms Kemmner and Mr Reddaway wished the Board to be aware of how quickly this young man was able to be assessed and treated because they were called in once his problems with swallowing were recognised. It also meant the young man was able to be treated at an outpatient without the need for any hospital admissions. It was noted that the Community Dietetics team were a small team, but they were keen to ensure that teams in the community were aware of the service they provided and they were trying to raise awareness of malnutrition and their role in supporting patients because very often teams missed the opportunity to call in the Dietetics team when they could have made a difference to a patient’s well-being. The Chief Executive reflected on the need for patients to have access to high quality food and how the team had made such a positive impact on this young man’s life. Mrs Matthews queried the missed opportunities and Ms Kemmner explained that the team was small (3.7 whole time equivalents) and was based at Torbay Hospital, but provided a service across the Trust’s whole footprint. She said that the team worked hard to raise awareness, however they were not always called in to support other teams when earlier intervention could have made a difference. Ms Kemmner added that the team had a year’s funding to support the teams in Newton Abbot and Torquay, but this was not equitable as the same funding was not provided for the other localities. In addition, the team have put in a bid for winter pressure funding to work with the CCG around hydration in care homes, as it was known that good hydration contributed to the prevention
