We have experienced Diabetes Dietitians, who offer specialist Medical Nutrition Therapy for people with Diabetes.
Dietitians are trained under the Masters in Dietetics programme (5 year Dietetic Training) and are registered with the New Zealand Dietitians Board. The role of a dietitian is to evaluate scientific evidence about food and nutrition, and translate it into practical strategies. New Zealand dietitians work in partnership with individuals, whānau, communities and populations, in states of health and disease, to support optimal health and wellbeing.
Dietitians use their dietetic knowledge, skill and judgement in a variety of contexts, which includes promoting and protecting public health, directing and delivering medical nutrition therapy services, and managing food and health systems. They may perform a variety of functions, including policy development, leadership, management, research, education, and communication roles.
Scope of Practice for Dietitians, Gazetted by the Dietitians Board, April 2017
“A dietitian is a person with a qualification in nutrition and dietetics recognised by national authority [s]. The dietitian applies the science of nutrition to the feeding and education of groups of people and individuals in health and disease.”
Medical nutrition therapy (MNT) is an integral component of all aspects of diabetes care from prevention to managing existing diabetes. MNT uses the latest available scientific evidence, takes into account treatment goals, includes clients in the decision making process and is individualised according to clients' needs.
Auckland Diabetes Centre Diabetes Dietitians offer one-on-one consultation for patients with Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes at the Greenlane Clinical Centre or at specified community satellite clinics.
For Type 1 diabetes patients, we also run a DAFNE (Dose Adjustment for Normal Eating) self management course (since 2009) - 5 courses per year.
For Type 2 diabetes patients, we are running 4x1hr courses on:-
1. What is diabetes and introduction to carbohydrate counting - 25th August 2017
2. Fat and label reading - 1st September 2017
3. Sugar and label reading - 15th September 2017
4. Meal planning and how to eat healthily on a budget - 29th September 2017
Due to large demands on our service we are not able to offer long term follow-up or intensive programmes for weight loss.
We are also involved in the training of other health professionals.
At present we accept referrals for the following:
• Type 1 diabetes
• Type 2 diabetes, complex
Those with newly diagnosed Type 2 diabetes (lifestyle and/or Metformin treatment only) are advised to attend a Diabetes Self Management (DSME) course run in the community.
