Dietitian Aged Care Menu Review (Australia)

Under the Aged Care Act 2024 and Aged Care Rules 2025, residential aged care providers must have their menu reviewed at least once a year through a menu and mealtime assessment by an Accredited Practising Dietitian (APD). This obligation sits within Standard 6 (Food and Nutrition), Outcome 6.3, of the Strengthened Aged Care Quality Standards.
