Welcome to Nosh Dietitians Co. !
Hi, I'm Louise, an Accredited Practising Dietitian specialising in aged care and food services. Nosh Dietitians Co provides specialised dietetic services with a focus on combining our love of creating tasty, safe and nourishing food for older people, with being advocates for high quality meal time experiences.
It can be frustrating not knowing where to find the right information, or even what the right information is - you don't know what you don't know, right?
We've created this space for dietitians and aged care facilities to learn all you need to know to provide high quality, nutritious food and nutrition services for older people. With nearly 20 years of experience in combining evidence-based nutrition with practical strategies, we help you develop quality food services and nutrition procedures to achieve positive health outcomes for your consumers while also meeting Aged Care Quality Standards.
Nosh Dietitians Co. are located in Perth and provide services to the greater Perth metropolitan area, as well as the South West region. If you’re outside this area but would like specialised aged care dietitians to provide support, contact us to discuss Telehealth and remote access options.
Dietitian Services:
-
Clinical Dietitian Referrals
We provide full nutrition assessments and develop evidence-based dietary care plans that are tailored to your residents. These include for unintentional weight loss, malnutrition, unstable diabetes, gastrointestinal conditions, pressure injuries/ wound healing, enteral feeds, cancer cachexia and cognitive decline with dementia.
-
Menu & Mealtime Assessments
We provide a comprehensive review of your menu, including an onsite assessment at mealtimes to measure the actual food provided to residents. The menu is assessed to ensure the food provided meets the quality and nutrition standards for older people, so that they meet their minimum nutrition requirements to maintain their quality of life. We provide actionable strategies for quality improvement and determine if your food services meet the Aged Care Quality Standards for food and nutrition. We help you to develop a menu and mealtimes that your residents rave about.

Nutrition Policy & Procedures
Often the forgotten part of aged care nutrition, we help you develop nutrition processes to direct your staff to identify areas of concern with unintentional weight loss, malnutrition or other medical conditions that require specific nutrition support. In partnership, we develop procedures to direct your staff with actions to take to improve food and nutrition outcomes for residents. We take an overall view of your nutrition procedures and tailor them specifically for your organisation to reduce risk and improve clinical outcomes.
