Guidance on making a referral to Dietetics

Care homes can refer to our service through our online referral form. It is not necessary to request a referral from the GP.

• How do I upload a food and fluid chart?

You can download the latest food and fluid chart here, please fill in the document and attach to the question on page 5 of the form.

• How can I complete the chart?

You can download the chart and complete on your computer or you can download the chart, print it off, complete it, scan it, and save it to your computer.

Whatever works for you, but the completed chart will ultimately need to be saved on your computer to later be attached to the question within the form.

• How do I go back and complete a section of form that is incomplete?

If you are not able to complete the form in one sitting you have the option to save and exit the form. Once you have saved you will need to give an email and password in order for you to log back in and complete. The link to do this will appear in your emails.

• How will I know I have completed the form successfully?

If you have filled in all the required fields you will receive a confirmation email from the service.

Only when you receive this email will it be confirmed the form has successfully been completed

The Nutrition and Dietetic team will continue to review all residents on nutritional products on prescription. However if it has been noted that the nutritional products are not requested from the GP on a regular basis, the patient will be discharged from service.

Please consider if your referral is appropriate.

• You, or your family members or friends could prepare extra meals which can be stored in the fridge or freezer or buy a selection of ready meals so that there is always a nutritious option available.
• Remember that most supermarkets offer online shopping and home delivery services which can make shopping easier for you.
• Consider meal delivery services, for example Wiltshire Farm Foods or Oakhouse Foods, if you are struggling to prepare meals.

Aim for a balanced diet

It is important to include starchy foods and protein in your diet. Try to have these with each meal.

• Starchy foods include rice, potatoes, pasta, breakfast cereal, bread and crackers.
• Protein rich foods include meat, fish, eggs, cheese, Greek yoghurt, lentils, beans, nuts, seeds, tofu, soya or TVP textured vegetable protein).
• Fruit and vegetables provide essential vitamins, minerals and fibre. As they are low in protein and calories, it may help to have small amounts so that you do not replace higher calorie or protein options during your recovery.

• Eat little and often. Try eating small portions as large portions may put you off eating. Aim for 3 small meals and 2 to 3 snacks per day
• Have drinks after meals rather than before as they may fill you up.
• Try to have nourishing drinks throughout the day, for example, milk, milky tea and coffee and fresh fruit juice*, hot chocolate*, malted drinks* and smoothies*.
• Keep nourishing snacks in the house so you have them to hand to have in between meals. Put these on the table next to where you spend most of your time to snack on during the day.
• Have some of your favourite foods or treats in your home, such as cakes, biscuits, crisps and cereal bars*.
• Aim to include 1 pint of whole milk per day in your diet. You can add 2 to 4 tablespoons of dried milk powder to whole milk to make it more nourishing.
• If you do not use cow's milk, try other plant-based milks, nutrient dense drinks such as full sugar squash (high juice), fresh fruit juice, and fruit smoothies.
• Avoid low fat and diet products, try to use full fat options.

Snack ideas

• Cheese and apple
• Cheese and biscuits
• A bagel with cream cheese
• A pasty, pork pie, scotch egg or sausage roll
• Peanut butter and fruit
• Peanut butter on toast
• Olives
• Nuts
• A scone with jam and cream
• Mousse
• Custard

Nourishing drink ideas

*Homemade milkshake recipe*

All you will need to mix is:

• 200mls full cream milk
• 1 tablespoon single cream
• 2 to 4 tablespoon dried milk powder
• Some flavouring (for example Nesquick or Crusha)

This will be around 350 calories and will include around 16 grams of protein.

*High calorie juice drink recipe*

Mix the following:

• 200mls orange juice
• 240g fruit-  this could be fresh, frozen or tinned
• 1 tablespoon of honey or golden syrup

This will be around 260 calories and will include around 2 grams of protein

*If you have diabetes continue to follow Diabetes team plan as they will provide guidance on foods and drinks that will help to support glucose control.

As well as eating well, it is also important to make sure that you are keeping hydrated. Try to drink 8 to 10 cups of fluid a day unless instructed otherwise by your doctor. Modified cups or mugs can make drinking easier. 

The colour of your urine is a good guide to see how hydrated you are. A clear, pale yellow colour indicates good hydration, whereas a more concentrated dark yellow colour may indicate that you are becoming dehydrated.

If you have difficulties with swallowing or are often coughing or choking on food and drinks, you may need an appointment with the Speech and Language Therapist who can advise on safe food texture and fluid thickness. Please contact your GP.

*If you have diabetes continue to follow Diabetes team plan as they will provide guidance on foods and drinks that will help to support glucose control.

It is common to lose your appetite and eat less when you are unwell. Your illness, treatments, and the routine in hospital can make eating harder. You might also miss the foods you normally eat at home. Your appetite should start to return when you get back to your usual routine.

It is important to eat and drink enough while you are getting better in hospital and when you go home. If you do not eat well for a long time, your body may not get the nutrition it needs to stay healthy. This can make you lose weight without trying. Eating enough calories and protein helps your body fight infections, heal, and recover.

While you were in hospital, you may have been weighed every week. If you can, it is helpful to keep checking your weight at home.

How can I improve my food intake if I have a poor appetite?

If you can't eat a full meal, eat little and often. Aim to:

• Eat three small meals a day
• Include nourishing snacks and drinks between meals and at bedtime where possible
• Use full fat varieties
• Try to have one pint of milk (ideally full fat) per day. You can use this in cereal, sauces and drinks.

You'll find some ideas for snacks, drinks and ways to boost your food below. Please note that some options may not be suitable if you need texture modified meals or thickened drinks. If that applies to you, please get in touch and we can offer alternatives that are safe and appropriate for your needs.

Drink ideas

Try fortified or enriched milk

How many calories and protein is there is in full fat or fortified milk?

• Full fat milk (1pint) = 360kcal and 18g protein
• Fortified milk (1pint) = 460-560kcal and 28-38g protein

How do I prepare fortified or enriched milk?

Add 2-4 tablespoons of dried or skimmed milk powder to 1 pint of full fat milk, mix well and then use like regular milk- on cereals, drinks, cooking.

Eating well helps you to avoid losing weight, helps your body to re-build tissues, fight infection and cope with the side-effects of any treatment you may be having, while helping you to control your diabetes.    

If you are not eating well, try some of the following tips to help you eat more:

• Small regular meals and snacks
• Increase your fat and protein intake
• Aim to eat a starchy food, such as, bread, potatoes, pasta, rice, cereals at each meal
• Make your food more nourishing with the ideas below

Even if you are feeling unwell, you must try to eat and drink regularly, especially if you take tablets or insulin to help control your diabetes. Remember, your blood sugar levels can become raised during illness or infection even if you are not eating well. If you are not able to control your blood sugar levels, or you find you cannot eat at all, contact your doctor or diabetes nurse as your tablets or medication may need adjusting.

If you have a reduced appetite

• Make the most of the times when you do feel hungry, keep snacks handy to graze on. Don't be afraid to eat at odd times of the day or night
• Try having your food from a smaller plate, as a full plate of food can seem like too much and may put you off eating
• Have small regular meals and snacks, every few hours during the day
• Let someone else do the cooking if you can. The smell may affect your appetite
• If you prepare food yourself, use foods that are easy to prepare, for example, frozen foods or ready meals, tinned food or instant mash
• Avoid filling yourself up on too much fluid before a meal
• Take a short walk outside before a meal as fresh air can help stimulate your appetite
• Try to relax and enjoy what you eat
• Take your time and chew your food well
• It is better to continue to limit sugar where possible, however it is important to eat the foods that you like, rather than being too restrictive. For example, having a small amount of jam on your toast is better than not eating toast at all

How to make food more nourishing

• Use plenty of butter, nut butter or vegetable spread on bread, toast, crumpets, malt loaf, teacakes, scones and crackers
• Be generous with the amount of butter, vegetable spread and oil you use in cooking
• Add unsaturated fats to your food where you can. Vegetable oils like olive, rapeseed or sunflower can be used to cook dishes or in dressings. Nuts and seeds are a good snack. Avocados and oily fish, like salmon or mackerel can be used for main meals
• Fortify soup by adding grated cheese, double cream, milk powder or crème fraiche
• Fortify potatoes and vegetables by adding mayonnaise, grated cheese, double cream, butter or margarine or add milk-based sauces 
• Use skimmed milk powder such as Marvel, or a supermarket own brand, to add to cereals, porridge, sauces, and milky puddings such as rice pudding, custard, yogurts, angel delight or dessert whips
• Add evaporated milk or cream to tinned fruit, instant pudding, yoghurt or porridge
• If you prefer to use non-dairy milk alternatives such as soya, choose full fat varieties and ones that are fortified with vitamins and minerals

Nourishing drinks

• Have a glass of full-cream milk
• Fortify full cream milk by adding 2 to 4 tablespoons of skimmed-milk powder to one pint. Use in drinks, on cereals or in cooking. Use this to make up drinks such as Horlicks, malt drinks, Ovaltine, hot chocolate, cocoa, Nesquik or Crusha milkshakes along with teas and coffee   
• Try packet soups between meals, make up with milk and add extra grated cheese, double cream or milk powder
• Try readymade milkshakes from the supermarkets. Try over-the-counter supplements such as Meritene (Build-up), Aymes Retail, Nurishment or Complan - these are available as milkshakes and soups (available from most chemists or supermarkets)
• Some people may need prescribed nutritional supplements to help them get enough nourishment. If this is relevant for you, your dietitian will talk it through with you and make sure you understand the options

Snack ideas

• Buttered croissants, oatcakes, scones, fruit loaf, currant bread, crumpets, tea cakes, bread muffins, pitta bread served with butter, peanut butter or full fat cream cheese
• Plain biscuits, for example, rich tea, morning coffee, oat biscuits, digestives or fig rolls. 
• Toast, crackers, crispbreads, rice cakes, flatbreads, bread sticks served with butter, peanut butter, avocado, cream cheese or hummus
• Savoury snacks, for example, popcorn, rice cakes, cheese portions, peanuts, crisps or mini-cheddars, cheese and biscuits, falafel, sausage rolls, cheese and onion rolls, savoury eggs, samosas, bhajis, pakoras or falafel
• A sandwich with a protein filling, for example, cheese, meat, egg, tinned fish, peanut butter or hummus
• A bowl of cereal or porridge made with full fat milk or served with thick and creamy yoghurt
• Sugar free jelly made with evaporated milk
