Eating Disorders
What is the nutrition care philosophy of the SCNC?
Strength
Nutrition provides the underlying strength to fully engage in treatment, speed physical healing, overcome daily challenges, and achieve individual life goals.
Collaboration
Nutrition care for eating disorders is a unique, collaborative process. You, your RDN, and each member of the multidisciplinary care team will work together toward your recovery.
Confidence
Confidence in meal planning, food shopping, dining out, and eating in social situations is essential for lasting recovery.
Freedom
A variety of evidence-based tools are used to help you achieve a balanced, flexible, and ultimately autonomous relationship with food.
