Nutrition And Dietry
Mount Meru Hospital understands that proper nutrition is essential for well-being and that being in a medical environment doesn't exempt us from this requirement. Within the broad context of recovery, nutrition plays a crucial role in bridging the gap between the expected outcomes for patients and the clinical interventions provided by other professionals.
Our skilled and compassionate nutritionists will not just be there for you but with you throughout the whole journey of you while at the hospital.
This is made possible because of the continuous training they are equipped with especially when assisting you.
On making personalized meal plans our nutritionist plans with you and for you making the plan even more realistic to implement rather than just a set of rules we already know before coming to our hospital.
The personalized meal plan for our clients will be done considering a variety of factors such as preference, taste, health goals, body type, and lifestyle while ensuring that every meal contributes fully to recovery.
By embedding nutritionists into the healthcare team, we ensure that nutritional therapy is absolutely, enhancing the precision and efficacy of patient care. This all profoundly enhances the quality of patient outcomes
