Creative Ideas

A strong and vibrant nutritional program includes creative means of helping patients and families learn new skills that will increase their chances of success with nutritional therapy. Some examples include the following:

• Cooking classes/videos at the institution or hospital, which can be led by knowledgeable patients or families or by a dietitian:
  Stanford's IBD Cooking Night
  University of Massachusetts Medical School Center for Applied Nutrition courses
  Seattle Children's Hospital SCDelicious cooking videos: Maddie's Banana Cake and Avi's Cheesy Crackers and Dip
• Grocery store tours illustrating how to read labels and where to find therapeutic diet staples.
• Collaboration with local restaurants and chefs to create programs that involve local farmer market shopping followed by cooking a meal in the restaurant:
  Cooking Together for Wellness – Chefs, Doctors and Young Patients (Seattle Children's Hospital)
• Develop a list of local chefs that could provide services to families that need help cooking compliant meals.
• Set up support groups that are led by patients.
• Hold regular nutrition conferences and symposiums:
