Healthcare

People get better when they eat better.

Healthier food makes a fitter bottom line.

So many regulations and guidelines hem in providers of nutrition in healthcare and long-term residential care. Meanwhile, budgets pose their own complications. But meals should be an occasion your residents look forward to.

Looking for experts to help create nutritious, delicious and affordable meals? Be sure they have decades of relevant industry experience, know the latest nutrition trends and are up on the sector’s regulations. And are they good listeners who’ve seen and solved issues like yours before?

    CASE STUDY:

    Catering to residents’ desire for nutrition and flavour

    The Problem

    Overall, protein and fibre are lacking in resident diets. Fatigued residents rarely consume enough, suffer weight loss and malnutrition. Currently, those nutrients are mostly provided through costly supplements.

    The solution

    Super Oatmeal residents can and like to consume, with extra protein and fibre

    • We identified one of the most widely consumed foods on the menu, served at breakfast when the residents have the most energy
    • We doubled the nutrition of regular oatmeal without changing the texture and flavour (aka Stealth Health), all while reducing the overall portion size, allowing facilities to serve a nutrient dense food that is happily consumed
    • We then showed the facilities how to use the Super Oatmeal as a natural way to fortify recipes throughout their menu. From high protein muffins to replacing the bread crumbs in their meatloaf, the Oatmeal naturally fits into many recipes.
