Aged Care

Meals are an essential part of your residential services, and the bright spot of the day for your residents.

Provide for the complex nutritional needs of seniors with warm, consistent service that takes you to the next level of care.

We focus on fresh‚ healthy and tasty meal options for your aged care residents that meet pre-agreed operating and labour costs‚ so you can be confident in consistent service standards at every meal‚ seven days a week.

Food Safety Programme
All our staff are trained to deliver exceptional
 food safety. Cleanliness and best practice are paramount, and our proven systems and processes reach DHB-level standards.

Dietician Support
Nutritional needs of the elderly can be complex and require careful assessment by an experienced dietician. All Cater Plus menus are dietician-approved, and our dietician is available for general advice and oversight of specialized needs.

Texture Modified Diets
For residents who need to eat pureed food due to difficulties with swallowing, meal times can be disappointing. To keep residents looking forward to breakfast, lunch and dinner, Cater Plus have teamed up with Flavour Creations to offer moulded pureed food that looks just like its natural form. Using Shape It, the team at Cater Plus produce tasty three-dimensional meal options to residents giving them the satisfaction of natural and visually appealing soft food, with a texture that’s safe to eat. This can reduce the amount of waste, dissatisfaction at meal time and the possibility of malnutrition and dehydration from reduced energy intake in residents.

Special Dietary Needs
New Zealanders are more diverse than ever, and senior residents often have additional special requirements such as high protein meals. We are sensitive to preferences, culture and medical requirements and offer delicious options that are:
- Vegetarian
- Vegan
- Halal
- Nut Free
- Gluten Free
- Egg / Seafood / Dairy Free

Staff Training & Support
Comprehensive in-house staff training‚ regular site visits‚ monthly reporting and annual performance reviews are just some of the ways we ensure we provide a reliable‚ professional and friendly service that satisfies the needs of your residents and visitors.
