More than nutrition facts: How dietitians nourish Northern communities

When you think of a dietitian, you might picture someone giving one-on-one advice about food choices. That’s part of the story, but in Northern Health, dietitians fill a variety of roles. Population health dietitians, for example, work at the intersection of food systems, public policy, and community wellness, using evidence-informed strategies to improve health outcomes across the region.
