My clients include:
The Hillcroft Nursing Homes.
I am the Consultant
Dietitian for this group of 5 nursing homes based near
Lancaster. The emphasis is on maintaining a good quality of
life for the elderly residents, many of whom have complex
health and nutrition problems.
My role involves working
closely with all the staff and residents to promote good
nutrition using a 'food first ' approach.

Condition Management Programme
This is a partnership
between the job centre and the NHS. The programme offers
a 13 week window of help and support to people on long term
incapacity benefit to enable people to manage their long term
conditions so they can return to work.
I provide practical
dietary advice either in individual consultations or as short
courses to help people understand their dietary habits and
make simple changes for improved wellbeing.
