Aged Care
Meals are an essential part of your residential services and often the highlight of the day for your residents.
Meeting the Nutritional Needs of Seniors with Consistent, Compassionate Service
We specialise in delivering fresh, healthy, and delicious meals that cater to the complex dietary needs of your aged care residents. With a focus on quality, we ensure every meal is served with care, while staying within pre-agreed budgets for operating and labour costs. This means you can trust us to maintain consistent service standards at every meal, seven days a week.
Seasonal Menus That Reflect the Flavours of the Past
Our seasonal menus are thoughtfully designed to reflect the dishes and flavours that our residents grew up with. Serving familiar, comforting foods from their earlier years creates a meaningful dining experience, and we’re committed to delivering these classic favourites with care.
Through daily feedback and regular Food Committees, we work closely with our residents to develop menus that meet their tastes and preferences. At Cater Plus, our team of experts combines in-depth knowledge of aged care nutrition with an understanding of flavour preferences to create a diverse, satisfying food offering.
Dietitian Reviewed Menus
All menus served in our Aged Care homes are thoroughly reviewed by third-party dietitians. We partner with external nutrition experts to ensure our menus are aligned with the latest dietary guidelines and best practices for senior care. By staying up to date with current nutritional research, we can better meet the individual needs of our residents. Additionally, we collaborate closely with nursing staff and medical professionals across all our facilities to tailor meals that support the health and wellbeing of each person in our care.
Texture Modified Diets
For residents with swallowing difficulties, mealtime can be challenging. To make meals more enjoyable, Cater Plus has partnered with Pure Foods to offer pureed meals that look like their natural form. These moulded meals are safe to eat, visually appealing, and help reduce food waste, while also supporting better nutrition and hydration. The Pure Food Co. works with nursing homes, dietitians, and chefs to create great-tasting, nutritious texture-modified foods. Made from fresh ingredients and packed with natural protein, energy, and fibre, these meals are designed to meet the needs of those with swallowing difficulties. They follow the International Dysphagia Diet Standardisation Initiative (www.IDDSI.org) and use advanced technology to ensure safe, consistent textures and delicious recipes that support residents' health.
Visitor Cafes
Cater Plus also offers a seamless café experience for your residents' visitors and friends. Specialising in cafés that complement the culture of your rest home, we work closely with you to create a welcoming environment that suits both your vision and budget, ensuring a great experience for all visitors.
