✨ Nutrition is a powerful part of recovery, and at Desert Hope, it’s built into every meal.
Meet Lacy Putek, our registered dietitian, who plays a big role in helping our patients rebuild their health from the inside out. 🥗 Many people entering treatment are malnourished or depleted, and restoring their bodies is a vital step toward restoring their lives. That’s why every meal we serve is intentionally designed to be:
✔️ Balanced with protein, healthy carbs, fiber, vitamins,
and minerals.
✔️ Comforting, not restrictive, because healing shouldn’t feel like “diet food.”
✔️ Flavorful and satisfying, helping patients positively reconnect
with nourishment.
✔️ Varied, so every plate supports both physical health and emotional comfort.
At Desert Hope, nutrition is a core part of the healing journey, and mealtimes are approached with care, intention, and a whole lot of heart. ❤️ When someone begins to feel stronger physically, they’re better equipped to do the emotional work in recovery.
