Triad Focuses on Better Nutrition: May 7 Meeting

Make sense of the barrage of information about nutrition, with the help of a clinical registered dietician who is coming to the Essex Co.-Tappahannock Triad on Tuesday May 7. Everyone is welcome to join the group for this presentation, from 10-11 a.m. at the Essex Co. School Board hearing room, 109 Cross St. in Tappahannock.

Get the lowdown on topics including hydration, fad diets, sodium, fiber, and exercise. Your guide will be Jennifer Miller, RD, who has worked for 13 years at Bon Secours Rappahannock General Hospital in Kilmarnock.

Jennifer is familiar with the needs of older adults, and has worked in acute care and long-term care, and now sees both inpatients and outpatients. She received her bachelor’s in science in Human Nutrition, Foods and Exercise with a concentration in Dietetics from Virginia Tech, and completed a dietetic internship through Virginia State University. She lives in Middlesex County with her husband and three children.

Triad is a partnership among law enforcement, older citizens, community organizations and others to enhance the safety and quality of life of older citizens.
