- The department of nutrition is an integral unit of our hospital since it first started operating. The department consists of seven board-certified nutritionists with specific specialties and a shared passion in promoting health and well-being through nutrition-based therapy.
- With the diverse and ever-evolving nutritional science, our team members are qualified Home Care Dietitians, New Taipei City Diabetes Combine Intervention Educators, and Taiwanese Association of Diabetes Educators. All members are active participants of the Nutrition Society of Taiwan and Taiwan Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition.
- Besides providing nutrition-based therapy and consultation for the hospitalized patients, we also provide a complete outpatient nutrition clinic in light of the increasing incidence of nutritional problems related to chronic diseased states such as hypertension, diabetes, gout, obesity, and hyperlipidemia, as well as the demands of nutritional intervention from the younger patients.
- Our team believes that any good medical therapy must also be coupled with adequate nutritional intervention to maximize its therapeutic potential, emphasizing the importance of providing comprehensive counseling and correct dietetic concepts to the general public.
