The Care Home Dietitians in NHSGGC cover all Care Homes across Greater Glasgow and Clyde. Their job role is primarily training and quality improvement. This includes data collection, improvement work, menu analysis, close multidisciplinary team working, and mealtime observations.
We work in partnership with Care Homes by supporting them with the tools and education needed to improve resident care and outcomes from a food, fluid and nutritional care perspective.
Along with Community Dietetics, the Care Home Dietetic Team has a role within the Care Home Collaborative. For more information about this team, please see their website on the button below
Good nutrition has a vital role in supporting people of all ages to maintain good health, this is especially true within the Care Home setting.
