Looking for a Filipino Freelance Dietitian / Nutritionist
Budget: $100 – $125 USD
We are looking for a Filipino freelance dietitian or nutritionist who can help prepare an easy-to-follow meal and feeding plan for an 84-year-old male patient who is bedridden with Stage IV lung cancer and COPD.
Patient condition and setup:
With pigtail drain, NGT (nasogastric tube), and urinary catheter
Doctor advised combination feeding:
Liquid nutrition and medications via NGT
Soft diet via mouth
Current feeding:
Ensure: 3 scoops mixed in 170ml every 4 hours via NGT
Lugaw/rice porridge also given via NGT once or twice daily
Water intake is mostly through NGT because the patient dislikes plain water with thickener by mouth
Other thickened liquids may still be tolerated orally, but intake is done with precaution because the patient can choke easily with liquids
We need someone experienced in:
Elderly patient nutrition
Cancer and COPD nutrition support
NGT feeding
Soft diet preparation
Dysphagia / swallowing difficulty management
Creating practical Filipino meal plans with simple caregiver instructions
Goal:
To create a realistic, nutritious, and easy-to-prepare feeding/menu plan that supports hydration, comfort, and nutrition while considering the patient’s condition and swallowing limitations.
Please send your experience, credentials, and rates.
