It's well known that the CQC places a sharp focus on meeting nutritional needs under Regulation 14 of the Health and Social Care Act ensuring that care providers are required to deliver meals that promote good quality of life, promote health, and cater to individual dietary preferences, religious beliefs, and cultural needs.
Government updates to the Buying Standards for Food and Catering Services (GBSF) also aim to ensure that meals served in care settings meet the latest dietary recommendations, including reducing salt and sugar while increasing essential nutrients, such as Omega 3s.
Our Catering, Hydration & Nutrition Theatre will provide insights into how to adapt your services to these evolving standards, bringing to the table practical demonstrations from industry-leading chefs and nutritional experts. No half-baked solutions here!
Catering in the care sector isn’t just about meeting regulations — it’s about creating an environment where nutrition and hydration can enhance the lives of those relying on care.
