Dietitians also supervise the preparation and service of food to groups, develop modified diets, participate in nutrition research, and supervise the nutritional aspects of health care. Dietitians may work in hospitals and other health care facilities or in private practice. They may work for government or community agencies, food industries, restaurants, schools, universities, the military, in communications, sales, or in a variety of other situations. As the public continues to recognize the dietetic professional as the true nutrition expert, demand for dietitians' services increases. A registered dietitian is a professional who must have a college degree in nutrition, complete an internship or planned work experience, and pass a national examination to become registered. After becoming registered, the dietitian maintains continuing education requirements by attending workshops and lectures to keep nutrition knowledge up to date.

Extractions: Mr. Chairman and members of the Committee, it is my pleasure to discuss nutrition and its importance for healthy aging in rural America. As president of the American Dietetic Association (ADA), I represent our nation's largest organization of food and nutrition professionals with nearly 70,000 members. We are dedicated to serving the public through the promotion of optimal nutritional health and well being. Our work is based on information drawn from peer-reviewed nutrition research and resources representing significant scientific consensus. Healthy aging for all Americans requires adequate nutrition to maintain health, prevent chronic diet-related disease, and treat existing disease. However rural America offers some unique challenges due to distance, topography, and limited availability of the wide array of health care options that are present in more urban settings. Those seniors who routinely eat nutritious food and drink adequate amounts of fluids are less likely to have complications from chronic disease or to require care in a hospital, nursing home or other facility. Thus, it makes sense to emphasize nutrition screening for seniors in rural areas. Isolated individuals frequently are more susceptible to poor control of chronic diet-related disease states due to difficulty in accessing available medical and/or nutritional care. Nutrition screening can identify seniors at increased risk for poor nutritional status and facilitate intervention to improve health.
