The Role of Food in Addiction Recovery: Insights from Avenues Recovery

Written by Sharon Farntrog | Mar 29, 2024 1:58:03 PM

On a scale of one to ten, how large of a role does food play in addiction recovery? Is good food critical? Of medium importance? Or not very significant of all?

As it turns out, food is an indispensable part of every rewarding, effective treatment experience.

Zev Erlanger, Director of Business Development at Avenues Recovery Center, served as a panelist on a webinar hosted by Healthcare Services Group[1] (HCSG) on the topic of “Fueling Recovery: The Intersection of Nutrition, Food, and Patient Satisfaction”. The 45-minute webinar featured three panelists, and addressed the crucial role that wholesome, nutritious, and appealing food plays in the overall recovery process.

Zev shared his insights as he discussed the mission and goals of Avenues Recovery Center, the population we service, and the benefits and advantages that partnering with a dining services provider such as HCSG has brought us. He spoke about how outsourcing our dining services to an experienced management company allows us to focus our energies on what we do best – providing top-notch clinical treatment for our clients – while secure in the knowledge that our clients are being served hearty and filling meals which suit their individual tastes and dietary needs.
