Nutrition Education
Our dietary staff at Bath Community Hospital offers a number of services to patients, hospital employees, and community residents. In addition to their responsibilities to patients, assessing their dietary needs and preparing their meals accordingly, the staff provides nutrition education on an outpatient basis, community outreach, Senior Center meals and the weekly Meals on Wheels program.
Registered dietician’s Libby Hobbs and Sandra Brinkley work together to provide a comprehensive dietary program. They both assess patients in the hospital to make sure their dietary needs are met. Libby’s specialty is working with renal patients and she is also involved with community outreach. Sandra works with outpatients to assist them and their families with special dietary needs, whether they relate to diabetes, heart disease or just general healthy eating. She has an extensive background in pediatric nutrition.
Sandra Brinkley, RD, and Libby Hobbs, RD are available by appointment to meet with individuals and their families to address general wellness, nutrition, and specialty diets. Call 839-3157 for more info.
