Joey, my husband got his G tube at interventional Radiology and he went home at the end of the day. His tube is apparently the new kind (we're talking about one and a half years now). He is fed through a large 60 ml syringe with a catheter tip. We don't need a pump and the feeding takes only five minutes. I was advised by his RO not to blend food as there was the risk of blockage in the tube (if it does happen, flush it with some pop, the bubbles will push whatever is blocking the tube through). If the insertion site is red, do three or four saline soaks a day. When the soak is done, do what Christine suggests, put some barrier cream and a drainage sponge on it. That will keep it clean and free of infection.
