Dietician 101
Recorded February 6, 2023
This is the first of a regular series of information sessions on what a dietitian is, what they do, and how they can help you or the person you are caring for. The series following this one will be on specific issues, concerns etc., that families/individuals encounter regarding food and nutrition. It will also focus on helping those with disabilities.
Join Kelly Reinprecht, RD to learn about registered dietitians, leading experts in all thing’s food and nutrition. Did you know that dietitians are everywhere and offer many services to help individuals, families and groups? Kelly will present on when to seek help from a dietitian and how to access their services in Alberta. You will also learn how to access existing nutrition resources to help you and your family eat well and be well. Time will be reserved for Q&A and a chance to request nutrition topics for future presentations so please come with ideas!
