Home enteral nutrition therapy (HENT) is a form of providing health care and nutrition in the home. It aims to preserve the family ties in association with multidisciplinary care, especially nutrition. HENT is important because it often converges to the principles of food security and nutrition (FSN); because individuals cannot take in food by mouth, they are sometimes affected by the worsening of FSN in their family/household. As feeding has social power and cultural significance, the needs of patients and their families cannot be ignored in situations where the use of HENT is required. Their needs must be fully met, considering the principles encompassed by FSN: quantity, quality, diversity, access to food, on a permanent basis, based on the Human Right to Adequate Food (HRAF) within HENT.
