At Rowans Living Well Services we are aware it is important to support patients’ nutrition and hydration needs, providing advice and guidance through professional partnerships with our local dietitian teams.
We recognize eating and drinking at different phases of illness can be complex and multifaceted and this can result in a great deal of stress for the patient, their family or carers.
These sessions are bookable throughout the year, covering a number of topics, such as:
• Definitions of Nutrition
• Eating comfortably – what feels right for you.
• Treatment of Poor Appetite and Weight Loss
• Consideration of nutritional screening
• Practical support on how to fortify food and add a little extra protein to foods
• Gut care with ideas to help manage constipation /diarrhoea/reflux
If you have particular individual needs, you will be able to make contact through the Dietitian, along with the opportunity to ask any other questions.
