Aged Care Dietitian Services
Client Testimonials
Our company have been working closely with AHP for PT and OT services for a number of years now in an RACF capacity and had an extremely proactive relationship. They were super adaptive with the changes between ACFI and AN-ACC between to old PMP model 4b model of service to the new ‘Wellness and Rehabilitation’ requirements with new Aged Care Reforms. With that, new guidelines and processes were promptly developed to specify Industry Standards, Governments Requirements and Ozcare requests, in which have all run extremely smoothly.
Working with the AHP aged care physiotherapy team has transformed my mother's mobility and overall well-being. The personalised approach and compassionate care she received not only improved her physical strength but also boosted her confidence and happiness.
The speech pathology services in the residential aged care facility have made a remarkable difference for my grandmother. The therapist's personalised approach not only improved her communication skills but also enhanced her overall social interaction and confidence. We are so thankful for their dedication and expertise, which have brought joy and connection back into her life.
Thanks for your help thus far. You guys are easy to deal with, and our client was very happy with the team.
We have just had AHP team here, they were fantastic with mum and has her booked in to visit the equipment supplier showroom on July 26th. Mum felt comfortable with the AHP team and listened to their advice and recommendations. To have mum considering a dining chair, recliner and bed is a huge step for her.
Our experience with the AHP occupational therapy has been invaluable. Not only did they visit my father in the home, but The therapist also provided tailored support that helped my father regain his independence and adapt his living space for safety and comfort. Their patience and expertise made a significant difference, and we feel more confident in his daily activities.
Nutrition and Aged Care Dietitians
In aged care, nutritional needs are more complex and require guidance to support physical health, cognitive function, and disease prevention. Our aged care dietitian team specialises in delivering evidence-based nutrition strategies that enhance the quality of life. By working closely with carers, nurses, and allied health teams, we ensure our dietitian services align with each client’s medical conditions, preferences, and goals. This holistic approach is central to how AHP Aged Care supports sustainable well-being across all levels of care.
Meal Planning
Meal planning is a core focus of our dietitian aged care approach. We don’t just build menus - we design personalised food plans that support nutritional goals, cultural preferences, swallowing safety, and appetite fluctuations common among older adults. In residential care, food should be enjoyable, varied, and nourishing. Our aged care dietitian team ensures every meal is part of a broader strategy to improve physical health, support emotional well-being, and make mealtimes something to look forward to.
Chronic Disease Control
Managing chronic diseases like diabetes, hypertension, and cardiovascular conditions is one of the most important roles of an aged care dietitian. Through tailored nutrition care plans, we help reduce the impact of these conditions, often minimising the need for medical intervention. Our dietitian services include working alongside GPs and nursing staff to create sustainable dietary strategies with a focus on prevention and treatment. We recognise that food is medicine - and in aged care, it’s often the first and most effective step toward better health.
Weight Management
Unintentional weight loss or gain can have significant effects on mobility, energy, and mental health. Our aged care dietitian team provides individualised plans to maintain a healthy weight in older adults, supporting muscle mass, strength, and independence. We tailor every plan to meet special dietary needs and health conditions, ensuring that every calorie counts. Through balanced meals and ongoing monitoring, dietitian aged care services help residents stay active, engaged, and well-nourished.
Hydration Management
Dehydration is a common yet preventable issue among older adults. Our aged care dietitian experts integrate hydration strategies into daily care routines, using personalised plans to encourage sufficient fluid intake in a way that suits the individual’s preferences and medical needs. Whether it’s thickened fluids for dysphagia or flavour-enhanced drinks to boost consumption, hydration is embedded into our comprehensive dietitian services to safeguard health and vitality.
Food in Dietitian Services
In aged care, food must nourish both body and spirit. Beyond nutrients, meals are a source of comfort, culture, and connection. Our aged care dietitian professionals ensure that menus are inclusive, safe, and fulfilling – taking into account dietary restrictions, appetite changes, and any feeding difficulties. For individuals under the NDIS, we also offer aligned NDIS Dietician Services that support complex needs with empathy and expertise.
