“We have had a successful business relationship with Nutrition Care Systems for over 20 years. Even though we are a large corporation that provides residential support in 140 locations throughout the state, the NCS network helps us maintain consistency by ensuring the dietitians servicing us are well trained and thorough. When there is a change in our dietary policies and procedures, the NCS network ensures the information is conveyed and implemented in a really effective way.”Amanda Ruff, Training Coordinator for
DD Homes Network
“As a Specialized Mental Health Rehabilitation Facility, we have a population very different from the
geriatric or disabled. Our residents are younger, very active and quite willing to voice their opinion on
the food they do and do not like. Nutrition Care Systems has been able to accommodate their
preferences and “liberalized” menus while still maintaining clinically accepted nutritional standards. NCS
is always there to quickly deal with any new State guidelines, accreditation mandates, administrative
requests, and all aspects of quality assurance. We have continued to enjoy a long and productive
relationship!”Sarah Leicher, Executive Director for
Clayton Residential Home
