Analysis occurred through the Content Validity Coefficient, the Content Validity Index and the Agreement Index. Results: two scripts were constructed and validated for caregivers’ skills training and qualification to care for patients using home enteral nutrition therapy in the process of dehospitalization by nasogastric tube and/or by gastrostomy. For construction, the study had the active participation of six experts, from a multidisciplinary perspective. For script validity, the following values of Content Validity Coefficient, Content Validity Index and Agreement Index were reached, respectively: 0.998, 1.000, and 100%. Most experts’ suggestionswere met. Conclusion: the scripts were considered valid in their content. They can be used by health professionals to carry out educational activities in the hospital environment regarding caregivers’ preparation the management of home enteral nutrition therapy, when leaving the hospital.
