How can a dietitian
help you? Dietitians
can provide a variety of services to individuals, businesses,
organizations, long-term care facilities, and restaurants. Many
people are concerned about their health and would like a dietitian
to assist them with modifying their diets. Businesses and
organizations may hire a dietitian to provide wellness classes or
other nutrition programs or seminars for their employees or
members. Long-term care facilities often require
consultant dietitians for nutrition assessment, treatment and
menu development. Restaurants may need help with menu
development and recipe analysis. |
