Eat Well 4 Life can support residential aged care facilities across the Shellharbour, Illawarra, and Shoalhaven regions, as well as provide support nationwide via Telehealth, to deliver specialist dietetic services that enhance resident wellbeing, improve food and dining quality, and help providers meet compliance requirements.
Why Nutrition Support Matters
Up to 50% of residents in aged care are at risk of malnutrition or unintentional weight loss, leading to reduced strength, slower wound healing, and increased falls and hospitalisations.
From 1 November 2025, the new Aged Care Quality Standard 6 (Food & Nutrition) will require facilities to demonstrate evidence-based, resident-centred food, nutrition and dining systems.
Partnering with an experienced aged care dietitian ensures your facility meets these standards while promoting dignity, choice, and enjoyment at mealtimes.
