Dietitians Meeting

Highland Valley’s registered dietitian Brandon Walton took part in state’s annual meeting of registered dietitians on Tuesday. The meeting is hosted by the state’s Office of Aging & Independence (AGE) and gives registered dietitians a chance to share ideas about their programs. The focus of the meeting was to look at the best practices around cultural foods and the right ways to menu them respectfully. Brandon provided a hands-on demonstration, cooking a stir-fry meal and showcasing adaptive equipment. It’s something that Brandon has been doing in various senior centers in communities Highland Valley serves.
