Aged Care Nutrition Services

At Beyond Food, we have extensive experience catering to the specific needs of the elderly, ensuring their food preferences, nutritional requirements, and dignity are maintained, even in the presence of medical conditions.

Here's how we accomplish this:

Nutrition Assessment for Residents

Our nutrition assessments and reviews for clients in aged care are thorough and holistic. We take a comprehensive approach, examining factors such as medical diagnosis, medications, diet, suitable food texture, bowel movement, blood results, and food intake.

Through discussions with both the staff and the client, we troubleshoot and make holistic recommendations that address their specific needs, ensuring that their nutritional requirements are met and promoting overall well-being.

Resident Nutrition Assessment

Malnutrition is very common among elderly clients and often times they are under-diagnosed. Hence, having regular nutrition assessments (monthly, 3 monthly, or 6-monthly) helps to identify the malnutrition risk earlier and allow optimising the nutritional needs accordingly.

Menu Review and Development

Having a balanced diet for the elderly in the nursing home is equally important as compared to home. We review, plan, and endorse the menu to ensure the nutritional needs of the elderly are being met. The menu will be designed with the consideration of operational cost, manpower, preference, and needs. There is a great balance between healthy food and tasty food needed to be managed well. Healthy food is not necessarily bland/ boring.

Redesigning Food Culture

What is the food culture in your nursing home right now? Understanding and putting more thought into the planning of your home's food culture allows the residents to look forward to each meal and find joy in eating the food they love and are familiar with. Oftentimes, food satisfaction scored the lowest in the satisfaction survey. So, how about letting us be part of your nutrition care plan and help to redefine it?

Blended-Moulded Diet (JoyFood)

When comes to preparing meals for the elderly, oftentimes we need to adjust the texture of the food. According to the international IDDSI guidelines, there are 4 texture classifications: Easy-to-chew; Soft and bite-sized; Mince and moist; and Pureed. We have developed JoyFood that is suitable for people who require a texture-modified diet by keeping the shape, look, and taste of the original food, but with pureed texture for safe consumption.
