Rehabilitative Nutritional Care

Ucchvas comprises an experienced team of dieticians, doctors, nursing staff and physiotherapists who do a comprehensive assessment of a patient’s general medical condition.

Whenever a patient gets admitted to Ucchvas for long term transitional care, diet plays an important role but if neglected, leads to malnutrition and delay in the recovery process. The dietary team at Ucchvas assesses the patient based on their height, weight, BMI, biochemical & past medical history and then provides the right amount of nutrition, in accordance.

Treating a patient becomes a challenging task for the nutritionist as rehab patients require different types of feeds, such as – enteral feeds, parenteral nutrition and PEG/PEJ feeds. Apart from the preparation, the storage of food is properly done by keeping the safety measures in mind. The kitchen equipment is well maintained by following thorough cleaning and sanitizing protocols to avoid food contamination.
