Dietetic
 

Our Registered Dietitians assist individuals with nutritional changes based on the assessed needs of the client, prescribed medical regimes and treatment goals.

A Registered Dietitian may work with you by:

  • Assessing, planning, developing and modifying a nutritional care plan based on the assessed needs of the client.

  • Implementing a nutritional care plan and setting priorities based on the client's needs, the client's goals and the availability of community resources.

  • Evaluating and providing ongoing assessment of a client's progress toward predetermined treatment goals.

  • Functioning as a resource person to caregivers and support persons regarding the nutritional issues and management of client care.

  • Providing education around illness and nutrition (Examples may include diabetes, renal failure, neurological degeneration, paediatric feeding and swallowing difficulties).
