Nutritional Nurse Resume
Patients need proteins, fiber, and carbohydrates to build resistance against diseases. All these vital elements are provided through right food intake. However, during illness, it becomes difficult to consume food. To help such patients eat and drink, nutrition nurses use feeding tubes and provide them food in a liquid form. These nurses are responsible in feeding the prescribed food and drinks to patients. They work as a team with nutritionists and physicians for taking care of nutrition needs of patients.
