Consulting Dietitian Consulting for Senior Living & Long Term Care Communities
Exceptional Nutrition & Care with Dietitian Consulting
DiningRD is one of the largest networks of consulting dietitians in the United States. With over 800 dietitians across the country, we have dietitians in every department within the company and serve over 8,500 senior living and long-term care communities.
While most communities partner with DiningRD’s registered dietitians to fulfill a compliance or regulatory need, we ultimately become an extension of your team. Our dietitians work directly with your team to leverage our personalized nutrition expertise along with our suite of technology products to help tailor dining services - all with the goal of balancing clinical compliance with resident-centered hospitality.
Why Choose DiningRD
While every community and resident has individual needs, our partnerships tend to include the following services.
On-Site Dietitian Consulting
Senior Living dietitian consulting focuses on both compliance and hospitality. Our goal is to help you prepare nutritious food that nourishes your residents to keep them healthy and fulfilled. We review your meal program to ensure that your service aligns with best practices in clinical nutrition and resident centered care.
Nutritional Assessment
We assess and monitor resident nutritional status on an ongoing basis. We focus on key clinical indicators such as weight management, skin integrity, hydration and more. These assessments are designed to help your residents thrive – while also monitoring for certain risks like malnutrition and therapeutic diet compliance. Each nutritional assessment is tracked and stored electronically with reporting accessible to your care team in our DiningHub portal.
Compliance and Operations Review
We also provide a variety of additional services to help ensure your community is maintaining regulatory standards. These services include:
- Kitchen Audits covering food safety, storage, sanitation, and regulatory adherence.
- Meal service audits focusing on preparation, portion accuracy, delivery, and dietary compliance.
- Dining room audits centered on enhancing resident experience and hospitality.
- Custom staff and management training.
Central Resource for Technology, Consulting and Training
Our consulting clients all receive access to DiningHub, which stores historical site visit reports, compliance documentation, and resources such as our Policy and Procedure Manual and Diet Manual. We also have trainings and ongoing education opportunities to help keep your team compliant, while delivering exceptional food and service.
