What are better ways to balance prevention and intervention in the dietetics profession?

As someone preparing for my dietetic internship, I’m passionate about preventative care and helping people build healthier habits before disease develops. However, I’ve noticed that much of dietetic work happens in inpatient settings, often after prevention isn’t an option. How do you balance the desire to focus on prevention with the reality of working in treatment-focused roles? #Fall25
