DIETETICS DEPARTMENT
If you are what you eat, then plenty of us realise that our lifestyles impact hugely on our health and ability to live full lives. In life-style related illnesses like heart disease, diabetes, obesity and malnutrition, changing one’s diet is central to bringing healing – or at least ensure the management of disease.
The Dietetics Department works closely with patients in the wards, often then seeing them as outpatients and even out in other clinics and hospitals. Changing one’s diet takes time and the dieticians guide patients on this journey.
