Intestinal Rehabilitation Program

Our Extraordinary Program…


The Nebraska Medical Center formally developed the Intestinal Rehabilitation Program (IRP) in 2000 to provide consultation, management and long-term follow up to adults and children with intestinal failure and short bowel syndrome. Today, the program treats patients from all over the world and has gained global recognition for its innovative and multidisciplinary approach to the care of these individuals.

Our Patient Care…

From day one, our patients and their families receive care from specialists in gastroenterology, surgery, nursing, clinical nutrition, pharmacy, social work, feeding disorders and psychology, all of whom have a particular interest and long-standing experience in the management of total parenteral nutrition (TPN) and intestinal failure.
