The practice of providing specialized enteral and parenteral nutrition to patients in the home setting has expanded nationwide during the past decade. Accompanying this growth has been an increased need for education of patients, families, and care providers in techniques of administering intravenous and tube feedings safely after discharge from the hospital.

To meet this demand for information, written home nutrition support (HNS) education materials have been developed by hospital nutrition support teams, patient education specialists, home care providers, and formula manufacturers. The time and financial costs of developing these materials may be prohibitive in certain institutions that need HNS education resources. A directory of the printed materials available has been compiled to facilitate communication and exchange of HNS education information among institutions. The directory is presented with this article, with important characteristics to consider in the development of HNS education materials.
