Nursing Home Testimonials
Sinéad provides nutritional plans for the residents in my father’s care home. My father has been struggling to maintain weight and to eat due to swallowing problems. Sinéad spent time to phone me and explain the right types of food my father can have. She spoke to the kitchen in the care home around suitable meal and snack options and emailed me some information about the types of suitable foods to help build my father up. She also recommended suitable nutritional supplements for him which he likes. It gave me a lot of reassurance to know that his nutritional problems were being addressed by a trained professional.
I am a registered Nurse working in a nursing home where Sinéad provides us with virtual dietitian reviews. This service works very well as we email through food charts and information about the residents. Sinéad speaks to us over the phone regularly to ensure the care plans are appropriate for the residents here and will link in with family members when required. This saves us time and referrals are always processed and completed efficiently. The process has worked very seamlessly.
Sinéad’s Nursing home reviews are always comprehensive and efficient. I would recommend this service for any other care home facility as it is very professional. Sinéad always responds promptly to referrals and queries which arise.
