Episode 9: Hospital Food Special Edition

Jules and Erica discuss a pressing issue faced by those with celiac disease today - can I eat safely in a hospital? What if my loved one is hospitalized - will I have safe food while I'm there watching over my loved one? Do I have to bring my own food to the emergency room with me, or to the delivery room when I'm ready to have my baby? In this special episode, we'll share our experiences, and experiences received from our readers, and discuss how we can make hospitals a safer place for those with medically-necessary diets. 

Also, how can we get dietitians more involved in menu planning, patient care, and preventative care with nutrition. Where's the disconnect between incredible dietitians and hospital administration and patients?
