While we're celebrating National Nutrition Month, let's lift up our Nutrition and Dietetic Technician, Registered on NDTR day!

Heather's contribution to delivering safe and culturally competent nutrition services is invaluable. She partners with our Registered Dietitian Nutritionists (RDNs) to screen, evaluate, and educate patients on any nutritional concerns.

NDTRs are an integral part of assisting RDNs with monitoring a patient's progress and management of chronic diseases, and we can't thank them enough for assisting in reducing health disparities!

🥳 Today we shout out our amazing Registered Dietitian Nutritionists who work tirelessly to make healthy eating easier and more accessible. If you've never worked with an RDN before, here's a few things they do:

🍽️ Assist in developing eating plans to meet health needs
🫛 Guide you through navigating food allergies and intolerances
🤓 Aid in managing chronic diseases such as diabetes or hypertension

We couldn’t navigate the vast world of nutrition information without you, RDNs! Thank you for your knowledge, passion, and commitment to improving the lives of our relatives.
