Nutrition During Family Emergencies 2025

Baskets of Fresh Vegetables

Maintaining a healthy nutrition plan can be a hard, and sometimes confusing, topic for families to tackle even under normal circumstances. Throw a community-based emergency into the mix that limits access to grocery shopping and other food markets and restaurants and the task seems impossible. Throughout this interactive course, primary care teams will review evidence-based data and strategies needed to support families’ efforts to maintain a healthy and nutritious lifestyle during times of crisis.

Learning Objectives

As a result of participation in this educational activity, members of the healthcare team will increase their ability to:

  1. Explore Health and Healthy Eating.
  2. Provide evidence-based responses to parents/families regarding nutrition-related questions.
  3. Describe a healthy meal and snack using evidence-informed principles for energy balance.
  4. Support your patients and their families with solid nutrition information during crises/emergencies.
