The PCN currently employs a small team of dietitians.
What is a dietitian?
Dietitians are qualified healthcare professionals who use nutrition science to help people make informed decisions about the food they eat and their lifestyle, both for promoting good health and improving symptoms of disease.
We use the most up-to-date public health and scientific research on food, health and disease which we then translate into practical guidance to enable people to make appropriate lifestyle and food choices.
We provide individual advice to adults with the following conditions:
Malnutrition
Diabetes/high risk of developing Diabetes
Weight Management
Cardiovascular Disease
Functional bowel disorders
Please see the PCN Dietitian Referral form on EMIS Referral Tree for full details of the referral criteria.
