Nutritional Services - 685-5460

In addition to providing high quality and nutritional meals, the Nutritional Services Department offers grouped and individual counseling. Education Classes are available for diabetes and heart disease. MMC’s diabetes program is recognized by the American Diabetes Association as meeting their standards for education. A registered dietitian is an integral part of the Cardiac Rehab program offered through the hospital.

Registered Dietitians provide one-to-one counseling for both hospital patients and outpatient clients who require medical nutritional therapy for disease such as diabetes, heart disease and kidney disease. They also counsel for weight loss, allergies and other nutritional related areas. The primary goal of these sessions is to promote a supportive atmosphere to discuss the importance of good health through proper nutrition.

Through our dietitian outreach programs, nutritional counseling and services are available at Bad River Health and Wellness Clinic, Red Cliff Community Health Center, Mellen Manor, and Bayfield Aging Program.

Appointments can be made by calling the Nutritional Services Department directly, although physician referrals are preferred. A fee is charged for outpatient counseling and nutritional classes.
