We know that dietitians are achieving amazing things in Primary Care, and we want to share this evidence so that others can see it. We have created this "Evidence from Practice" section on our website to showcase our impact in Primary Care.
We have some general articles, not specific to any condition or case study but which are really helpful to get an understanding of how this role works in primary care, and what dietitians can do for practices. We then have articles, examples and case studies for each of the specialist areas that we work in as FCDs (diabetes, obesity, paediatrics, malnutrition & frailty gastroenterology, and CVD).
Every example of the great work we are doing, will help us to continue demonstrating our value in primary care and beyond. So, If you have anything you would like to share to be uploaded here, please email Susan Gallagher our Research Officer on [email protected]
