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).
