Typical sessions for the telehealth programs begin with a 20-30 minute didactic on a relevant topic, followed by case presentations and discussion. Providers may present their own case, have the facilitator make the initial presentation for them, or simply listen and learn from the cases presented. Continuing Medical Education (CME) credit is available for each session.

Nutrition Care provided as Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) is integral to the management and treatment of many pediatric medical conditions and goes beyond nutrition education to focus on disease management through proper nutrition. Pediatric Nutrition Telehealth Community of Care (PNT), helps nutrition providers throughout the state develop their skills in pediatric nutrition assessment, MNT, counseling, and working with individuals on treatment goals, thereby increasing access to medical nutrition therapy for pediatric patients in rural and underserved areas of New Mexico. PNT telehealth sessions include formal presentations on pertinent topics and clinical consultations by dietitians with expertise in pediatric nutrition.
