Improving Access to High Quality Nutritional Care

About Island Nutrition

Visit Us

Island Nutrition employs only qualified, experienced, Registered Dietitians (RDs). We follow a community-based model of care, bringing Medical Nutrition Therapy to clients to provide better access to care, better outcomes, reduce prescription drug use and reduce hospital admissions. By providing ease of access, in-office and in-home counselling and ongoing support we aim to improve adherence, enhance outcomes and prevent and manage chronic disease to reduce long-term healthcare costs. Island Nutrition Dietitians counsel clients on behavioural and lifestyle changes required to impact long-term eating habits. We use a whole food approach and will never sell you any supplements or other products.

Our Medical Nutrition services provided in-office and home visits are covered in full (no copays) by all local insurers, including HIP, Futurecare, GEHI, Argus, BF&M and CG. 

Copays may apply for telemedicine appointments, depending on your insurer. 

Our aims are to:

  • Create Wellness and prevent/manage chronic diseases by providing Medical Nutrition Therapy for clients with conditions such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, heart disease/heart failure, chronic kidney disease, bowel disorders and allergies

  • Reduce malnutrition and reduce hospital admissions including providing nutrition support such as home enteral/parenteral nutrition for clients with learning disabilities, oncology, wound healing, housebound (including care homes) and the elderly

  • Be family centred including promoting healthy lifestyle choices to reduce and manage paediatric obesity and creating an individualised but whole family orientated approach to improve adherence and improve outcomes

  • Provide ongoing support: Long term support for clients with or at risk of chronic diseases such as kidney disease, obesity and cardiovascular diseases

What is a Dietitian?

A Registered Dietitian (RD) is a licensed, qualified healthcare professional, having undertaken extensive education and clinical training. RDs must meet national registration requirements and maintain high levels of expertise through continuing education.


Dietitians are experts in Medical Nutrition. They use the most up-to-date public health and scientific research on food, health and disease which they translate into practical guidance. Registered Dietitians help people manage their medical conditions, symptoms and weight by educating them to be able to make appropriate food and lifestyle choices.


We are the only registered health professionals able to be directly reimbursed by insurance as a provider of Medical Nutrition Therapy including assessment, diagnosis and treatment of dietary and nutritional problems. 


A Nutritionist is not a Dietitian or healthcare professional. They are not qualified to provide Medical Nutrition advice. Whilst some nutritionists hold a nutrition degree this is not a mandatory requirement.
