Weight management support

Nutrition plays a key role in the prevention and treatment of a wide-range of health conditions. 

Swansea Bay University Health Board’s (SBU) Nutrition and Dietetics service works with hospital patients, the wider general public, other health professionals and organisations to promote nutritional health and wellbeing.

What the service offers

The team consists of dietitians, nutrition nurses, nutritionists and support staff with a broad range of experience and clinical expertise.  They are able to assess and treat the dietary issues of children and adults in health and disease. They organise and manage artificial nutrition support for patients when needed in the hospital and in the community.
