Message from Nancy Collins, PhD, RD, LD/N This month, we celebrate the second anniversary of RD411.com. Thank you to all the users, contributors, and sponsors who have encouraged and supported the tremendous growth of the site. I am proud to say that the site now has over 900 different resources covering a wide variety of nutrition and health topics. While the site has changed from month to month, my vision and goals have not; I am still firm in my belief that there is no need for every dietitian or health educator to reinvent the wheel each time he or she needs something. By having a dependable library of resources available 24/7, you can spend more time building your business, showing a patient five extra minutes of concern, or taking time for yourself. I have worked hard to assure that the materials on the site are accurate, unbiased, and easy to use. Please let me know how the site is helping you, as well as your ideas for future resources you would like have on the site. I love to hear from you! Write me at Nancy@RD411.com. | ||
