[Relation with patients and caregiver in home enteral nutrition (HEN)--from a pharmacist's point of view].
We opened dispensary in August 1997 and started consultation and home care in October of the same year. I learned about the necessity of guidance for caregivers and communication with people, and many other things. From now on, we need to provide our knowledge not only about medicine, but also about care goods, how to care, services to support care, and so on. Also, it is necessary for us to lighten the family's burden, and to cooperate with them in all aspects so they can provide complete care. This report describes the point at issue that I felt when helping two cases involving home enteral nutrition (HEN).
