Patient Assessments
Eat Well Nutrition dietitians are highly trained and qualified to provide clinical acute and sub-acute dietetic support for inpatients. Our range of expertise spans all areas of clinical care; ICU, CCU, medical, surgical, rehab, mental health, oncology, along with out-patient programs.
Telehealth
Due to the ongoing Covid-19 situation, we have diversified our care options to support our hospitals. Telehealth enables your hospital and patients to receive support without contractors being onsite. Telehealth consultations are completed with the same high degree of care and consideration as our on-site visits. On-site remains our preferred method of care, however we know, at the moment, its not always possible.
