March 26 - 30, 2023

The heart of any home is the kitchen and the same holds true for the Household Model. Explore the possibilities for designing and developing dining practices built on choice and home experience in your organization.

Target Audience

• A Dietary Manager
• A Dietitian
• A Dietary consultant working with a household client
• An Administrator or CEO rethinking your organizational structure or
• An architectural firm designing Households

We will have the opportunity to discuss food and design for food service as a meaningful and pleasurable daily experience for elders. Visit and study with residents and staff at nursing homes converting to the household model. Learn behind the scenes specifics from the dietary staff. We will study processes and systems as well as learning how to put the kitchen back into the center of home life for residents living in long term care households.

Attendance will be limited to a small group so that each participant goes away with a strong network and actual consultation from the experts.

Between each live online meeting there will be manageable online homework assignments.
