Overview
Nutrition Consultation
Crawford County Memorial Hospital’s Registered Dietician, Brooke Tasler, works in collaboration with the medical staff to help promote good health through proper eating. This work includes everything from reviewing the menu that is offered on a daily basis to patients and staff to ensure it is providing recommended servings from each food group, to more specialized one-on-one counseling with patients. The one-on-one services Brooke provides vary greatly depending on a patient’s specific condition, how much education they need and how best to tailor their nutrition plans to support their overall health goals.
Brooke is also available to provide Nutrition Education for civic groups or organizations. For more information, call 712.265.2537.
