‘Catering for Dysphagia Diets in Health and Social Care Settings’ – Practical IDDSI Training
Offering a great choice of foods suitable for dysphagia diets in care settings can seem like a huge challenge. Limited choice can really affect food intake and can be a major factor in the increased risk of malnutrition. Texture modification can reduce the risk of choking and aspiration. This course will give you the knowledge and skills to easily transform your regular menus into IDDSI compliant options across the whole day.
Combining workshops, demos and practical cooking we will take you through the whole process of creating an operation that will endure. Learners will look at ingredients, menu planning, the working kitchen and preparation. This underpinning knowledge will be strengthened with practical training using simple reliable techniques.
