Ensuring Good Nutrition
The Department of Ageing, Disability and Home Care has developed overarching nutrition policy and standards for all Government and non-Government disability supported accommodation and centre based respite care services.
This policy is a central part of DADHC's strategy to improve nutrition for people with a disability and minimise the risks in caring for this vulnerable group of people.
Key Platforms of the Policy
- An operational policy that guides service providers in developing assessment, review and monitoring systems regarding the nutritional health of their clients.
- Policy of annual nutritional risk assessment.
- Referral, follow up and monitoring by the service providers in the involvement of appropriate health professionals in assessment, intervention and ongoing management of nutrition, swallowing and mealtime issues.
- The policy links directly to the department' new Quality Improvement and Integrated Monitoring System and the new regional and corporate framework.
- Prevention and early intervention. An information package and training program that will assist service providers, people with a disability, carers, families and health professionals in developing these systems of nutritional care and in making decisions about the management of nutrition problems including high risk problems such as dysphagia.
