Dietetics and nutrition care

Yes, this service can be aligned with your values and preferences. Our Accredited Practising Dietitians will take the time to learn your individual cultural and care needs so they are always considered when making their recommendations. They will also encourage you to set meaningful goals and help you to achieve them. You can also opt to have your preferred support person included during the consultations, or access interpreting services if required.

This service is delivered by Accredited Practicing Dietitians, who are trained to use the science of food and nutrition to promote health and prevent and treat disease to optimise your health. Our dietitians are accredited with Dietitians Australia.

Dietitians and nutritionists are qualified to provide a range of evidence based nutrition services, but in addition, dietitians have the expertise to provide individual dietary counselling, medical nutrition therapy, group dietary therapy and food service management.

These are provided under our Meal Delivery service. You can find out more about this service here.

Yes, our dietitians can work with you to tailor a meal plan that helps you avoid allergens and manage your intolerances. We will also find healthy alternatives to help you achieve your nutritional goals.

Our dietitians will assess your health condition and work closely with you to assess what supplements you may need in addition to your ongoing nutritional plan. You may be able to utilise your funding allocation to purchase supplements, or if this isn't an option, our dietitians can help you access these at a subsidised rate. This will be discussed with you during the initial consultation.

Our dietitians can give you practical advise on how to modify your meals to reduce incidences of choking and aspiration. This may also include using nutritional supplements. Please note that our dietitians do not assess for dysphagia – this must be done by a Speech Pathologist.
