Sodexo, world leader in food services and facilities management and
the largest private sector employer of registered dietitians (RDs)
in the US, announced today an expanded telenutrition solution to
deliver dietetic expertise virtually to patients across the
country. The Sodexo Nutrition and Wellness Center will provide
clinical nutrition and dietetic support for patients across the
United States. Sodexo dietitians provide programs and services
virtually, with emphasis on individual counseling, metabolic
testing, and medical nutrition therapy.
For 15 years, Sodexo’s Nutrition and Wellness Center has served
as an online portal for in-person counselling for patients to seek
dietetic services in the Denver, Co., market. Now, patients
anywhere in the US can receive even more support with virtual
sessions with registered dietitians, a mobile app, one-on-one
health coaching, group sessions, and meal planning. Through the
Sodexo Nutrition and Wellness Center, patients will be able to seek
guidance on a wide variety of topics, including sports nutrition,
gastrointestinal disorders, oncology nutrition, weight loss, and
specialty diets.
“The healthcare industry’s response to COVID-19 has demonstrated
that improving access to care is fundamental to improving patient
outcomes,” said Julie Branham, vice President of Clinical Nutrition
for Sodexo Healthcare. “RDs are essential in the healthcare
environment, alleviating and facilitating the care provided by the
already overextended medical teams. And telenutrition services
improve access and allows more consistent support for more
patients.”
With its large network of registered dietitians, Sodexo
Healthcare is focusing its investment in clinical nutrition, to
improve outcomes and patient engagement and satisfaction.
“Our RDs access the latest evidence-based clinical nutrition
practices from around the globe and use technology to deliver
care,” said Branham. “The Sodexo Nutrition and Wellness Center is
founded on the understanding that nutritional science is essential
for empowering healthier communities.”
