Medical Nutrition Therapy

At Medical Nutrition Therapy in Westland, MI, we are dedicated to providing individualized nutritional care through the expertise of our Registered Dietician. Our mission is to ensure that each patient receives balanced meals and therapeutic diets tailored to their specific needs. Upon admission, every patient will undergo a comprehensive assessment, which includes evaluating height, weight, and nutritional requirements based on their activity levels, as well as reviewing medications for potential food interactions. Our RD also conducts physical assessments to identify any unique needs, encourages socialization during mealtimes, and collaborates with other health professionals to prescribe appropriate dietary textures. We prioritize ongoing monitoring of patients' progress through weekly weight reports, lab results, and appetite tracking, ensuring all dietary preferences, allergies, and intolerances are considered in personalized menus. Our commitment to optimal health and well-being means that we also support those requiring specialized nutritional interventions, such as TPN and tube feeding, alongside recommending necessary supplements. With a strong focus on comprehensive care, we strive to enhance the quality of life for all our residents.
