I work in a hospital, and the SLP's do an inservice
for all new volunteers about feeding.  The bottom line
of the presentation is that volunteers can help to
feed any patient as long as they do not have  
dysphagia.  They are to check with a nurse before
feeding anyone, and the nurses are responsible for
giving permission.
