All Registered Nurses and Nurse Associates involved in care of nasogastric tubes must attend NG tube training.

Please remember: "No training, no touching"      

The face-to-face session should be completed for initial training. Following this, colleagues can complete the e-learning package every three years to maintain competence.

The e-learning can be found on our intranet page called 'Nasogastric tube tutorials & competencies'

Please book face to face sessions via ESR or email nutrition.nurses@cht.nhs.uk
