About Consultant Dietitian for Care Homes

Small homes have big responsibilities. Whether you run a six-bed residential care home or a larger assisted living community, Peas & Pappas can be your consultant dietitian: a trained second set of eyes on what residents eat, with practical, age-friendly suggestions your team can use in the kitchen.

Every engagement is scoped with you: how often reviews happen, what gets reviewed, and how recommendations come back to your team. Consider it peas of mind for care home operators.
