Are you a healthcare provider, organization, or facility, that would like to learn how to implement perioperative nutritional support?

We understand the challenges behind implementing new protocols, and sustaining consistent standards of care and results.

    • Lack of time 
    • Resistance to change
    • Poor communication, collaboration, and coordination between departments and patients
    • Lack of clinical data and information
    • High staff turnover
    • Lack of hospital management support and resources

Our goal is to provide an effective optimization program that can be efficiently integrated into an Orthopaedic surgery pre-operative workflow.
