How does Bancroft promote good nutrition and wellness for the individuals served?
Bancroft recognizes the importance of proper nutrition in maintaining good health and quality of life for the individuals it serves and, therefore, establishes processes designed to support proper diets. We base diets on the Food and Nutrition Board’s recommended dietary allowances. Diets are adjusted for age, sex, disability and activity when necessary. In addition, we have a full-time dietician on staff, who oversees staff training and individually prescribed diets. A wealth of resources is available to staff on the organization’s Intranet.
