Individual Resident Services​​
ASSISTING YOUR RESIDENTS WITH ALL THEIR DIETETIC NEEDS

Providing individual services to residents is a specialty of our practitioners.  Over many years, we have assisted hundreds of aged and transitional care residents with needs relating to malnutrition, Diabetes - Type 1 & Type 2, healthy eating, osteoporosis and many more.

Recommendations are delivered using best-practice guidelines and all consultations come with comprehensive written reports which are delivered to the facility, and the resident’s GP, within two business days. Where appropriate, liaison is provided with the residents family, Clinical Nurse Consultant or support workers.

Individual services also extend to dietary prescription of oral nutrition
supplements combined with relevant meal plans.

Aged Care Staff Training and Development

In-service training for nursing and catering staff are an excellent way to ensure team members are up-to-date with the latest information on       dietetics for aged care.  Education can be provided individually for new staff members however facilities benefit greatly from a group consultation format where our dietitians can attend the facility and discuss one, or a number of conditions. Group ‘in-services’ are delivered in a professional, fun and interactive way, ensuring that each staff member gets the most from their training. To aid in the educational process, numerous resources are       provided for ongoing reference.
Some of the in-service topics frequently covered include -

• Hydration and skin integrity
• Malnutrition
• Diverticular disease
• Diabetes
• Wound healing
• Constipation and diarrhoea

Many other topics can also be covered and adjusted accordingly to suit your needs and requirements.

Food Service Menu Reviews and Assessments
COMPREHENSIVE MENU REVIEW AND REPORTS

Our Dietitians can provide menu reviews and assessments which  include a comprehensive written report with recommendations on how to improve the menu to meet best-practice guidelines and the 2.10 Nutrition & Hydration Accreditation Standards. During the consultation process we work closely with the appropriate catering staff and Director of Nursing to  ensure that these suggestions are provided in conjunction with the needs of the residents and your facility’s needs, resources and budget.
