The Foundation of Complex Recovery.

We provide specialist clinical nutrition input across three levels, depending on the complexity and needs of the case.

Our work typically begins with detailed assessment to identify nutritional factors impacting recovery, followed by targeted intervention and, where required, ongoing case management.

Clinical Nutrition Case Review and

Nutritional Assessment

A comprehensive clinical assessment designed to identify nutritional factors that may be limiting recovery.

An assessment is always required before recommendations can be made or intervention is given but can also be offered as a one-off if simple sign-posting or an estimate of input is required. 

Suitable for:

Targeted Nutrition Intervention

Focused dietetic intervention to address identified issues and support recovery.

Intervention may include:

  • restoring nutritional adequacy 

  • supporting muscle maintenance and tissue repair 

  • managing symptoms affecting intake 

  • implementing supplementation strategies where appropriate 

  • improving energy levels and rehabilitation tolerance 

Nutrition strategies are personalised and aligned with rehabilitation goals and level of complexity. Intervention is typically offered in the form of a programme of intervention ranging from a few targeted sessions, or 6-12 weeks of structured input. 

Clinical Nutrition Management

For complex or evolving cases requiring intensive and longer-term input.

Includes:

  • regular review and adaptation of nutrition strategy 

  • support through different stages of recovery 

  • collaboration with the multidisciplinary team 

  • outcome monitoring and reporting

Nutrition Rehabilitation Programmes

10–12 Week Signature Programme

The Fuel to Function™ programme is a structured nutrition rehabilitation pathway designed to support recovery after traumatic injury or complex illness.

The programme takes place over approximately 10–12 weeks and provides comprehensive dietetic intervention for individuals with complex nutritional needs or where longer-term health and recovery goals are being addressed, not only through dietary advice, but through supportive practical and health coaching strategies. 

Focus areas include:

  • optimising nutrition to support energy availability and muscle preservation

  • addressing symptoms that affect intake and recovery

  • supporting rehabilitation tolerance and participation in therapy

  • building practical nutrition strategies that support longer-term health and independence, functional goals and quality of life. 

Dietary changes are supported through practical as well as long term behavioural adjustments and take time to embed. Throughout the programme, nutrition strategies are adapted to the individual’s recovery stage and rehabilitation goals.

Foundations programme

6 Week Programme

The Foundations programme is designed to stabilise nutritional status and address early barriers that may be affecting recovery. It focuses on supporting adequate nutritional intake, managing common symptoms that interfere with eating and providing practical strategies that help individuals participate more effectively in rehabilitation and daily activities.

The programme typically supports:

  • restoration of energy and protein intake

  • management of appetite disruption and fatigue

  • practical meal strategies to support day-to-day functioning

  • improved rehabilitation tolerance

This programme is often suitable for individuals with lower complexity nutritional needs, or as an initial phase of intervention before progressing to a longer programme if required.

Sessional Dietetic Input

For some clients, targeted sessional dietetic input may be sufficient without a full programme.

This option provides a small number of structured consultations focused on assessment, education and practical dietary guidance.

It may be appropriate where a specific nutrition concern has been identified and short-term input is likely to be sufficient.

Includes:

  • comprehensive dietetic assessment

  • personalised dietary recommendations

  • written summary and guidance

  • liaison with the wider rehabilitation team where appropriate

  • cases where progress is unclear or stalled 

  • suspected malnutrition or inadequate intake 

  • fatigue impacting rehabilitation 

  • complex or multi-factor presentations 

Includes:

  • review of medical history, dietary intake, available blood results, health data, social and environmental factors & activity levels

  • assessment of nutritional status and risk 

  • identification of contributing factors 

  • detailed report with clinical recommendations 

Working with Case Managers and Teams

We are typically involved where:

  • recovery is slower than expected 

  • fatigue limits participation in therapy 

  • nutritional intake is reduced or inconsistent 

  • malnutrition, weight or muscle loss is a concern 

  • there is uncertainty around the role of nutrition in recover

Our role is to provide clinical clarity and targeted strategies that support rehabilitation outcomes.

Dietetic input includes:

  • A report after assessment with clear recommendations

  • Input to the client of 1:1 consultations every 2 weeks with Whatsapp or email support in between for questions. (Clients on a programme of 6 weeks, will have 3 x 1:1 consultations, and clients on a 10-12 week programme will have 5-6 1:1 consultations)

  • Practical tools, handouts, audio or video educational materials

  • Outcome-based monitoring

  • Liaison with the MDT and case manager

  • Mid-way report 

  • A Final report
