Raising the standard with dietitians in aged care

With the strengthened Aged Care Quality Standards coming into effect on 1st November 2025, dietitians are more central than ever to aged care quality. In this episode, we’re joined by Louise Murray, APD and Principal Consultant at Nosh Dietitians Co. to unpack what’s changing and how dietitians can step confidently into their evolving roles. Louise explores how we can use our seat at the table to advocate, influence foodservice, and bridge the gap between clinical and catering.
