About Layered Nutrition and Dietetics

---

A Dietitian is someone who has graduated with an accredited dietetics degree from an Australian university (or an overseas equivalent). An Accredited Practising Dietitian (or APD) is someone who meets criteria to call themselves a Dietitian and has also committed to ongoing training and education each year and adheres to the Dietitian’s Australia code of conduct. 

How is this different from a Nutritionist? 

Currently in Australia, the nutrition profession isn't regulated which means anyone is able to call themselves a Nutritionist, regardless of qualifications or experience while you must have an approved dietetics qualification to be a Dietitian.

A Credentialed Eating Disorder Clinician (CEDC) is someone who has met the criteria and minimum standards for qualifications, knowledge, training and professional development required to provide safe and effective eating disorder care. 

Professions that can hold the credential include  Dietitians, Mental Health Professionals and GPs.

Yes, you can bring a support person to appointments if you feel this would be beneficial to your care.

During your first appointment with us, we will discuss privacy and consent including how we collect and use your information and who else is involved in our care. We will discuss what you are hoping to achieve during your time with us and what your goals of care are.

Initial assessments and long appointments (60 minutes) cost $180, review appointments (30 minutes) are $90. Clients with referrals under Medicare ECP/TCA or EDTP are eligible for a rebate for each session allocated under these referrals. Eligibility for a rebate under a private health fund will depend on your level of cover. I would encourage to discuss this with your health fund prior to scheduling an appointment.  

This will depend on your individual circumstances and goals of care. We will regularly review your goals of care and set new goals as needed.

If attending appointments in person, our building is located off AMP Lane in Albury. The entry door to the clinic is off AMP Lane, to the left of Dash Espresso Bar. When you arrive for your appointment you will need to key in the code provided by your Dietitian. 

Please do not dial the code more than 10 minutes prior to your appointment time, as we may be in session with someone else. If you arrive early there are a number of lovely shops and cafes in the lane. 

The closest parking is located in the Volt Lane multistorey car park with 3 hour and all day parking spots available.
