Nutrition Service
Nurse Maude's Nutrition Service is primarily for Wound Care and Palliative
Care patients and is free of charge for those receiving these, and other,
services from Nurse Maude and is provided by a New Zealand-registered dietician.
The service offers an assessment of dietary needs for a wide range of medical
conditions and support to caregivers providing nutrition to others.
Dietary education to promote wellbeing and monitoring and adjustment of
nutritional programmes for people with life-limiting illnesses is also available either
in the clients home, if the client is unable to travel, or at the dieticians
clinic at Nurse Maude.
Clients can be referred to the Nutrition Service by other health care
professionals within Nurse Maude such as Community Nursing, Specialist Nursing
Services, Home Care, Hospice and Palliative Care or the Nurse Maude Hospital.
