At Lantern Alliance, we are on a mission to improve the quality of life of older adults through the joy of good food. Our goal is simple: to elevate the quality of food, nutrition, and overall dining satisfaction for residents, ensuring that every meal is not just nutritious but a delight.
With decades of evidence-based research and industry expertise, we empower aged care providers with the knowledge, training, and support they need to deliver exceptional dining experiences. Through our tailored programs and cutting-edge tools, including our proprietary Epicure and Explore software, we help you diagnose and enhance performance across food quality, nutrition, and service.
Our services are designed to align seamlessly with the Aged Care Quality Standards, helping you not only meet compliance but exceed expectations—pushing your organisation towards 5-star performance and set a new benchmark in aged care dining excellence.
At Lantern Alliance, we provide advisory services for aged care organizations, focusing on improving the food, nutrition and dining experiences.
At Lantern Alliance we encourage the sharing of knowledge and welcome all to our International community of practice focused on aged care food.
At Lantern Alliance, evidence-based practice and action-based research and research translation are key building blocks to driving results.
The Epicure Rating Report is the only industry-endorsed software for analysing aged care food, nutritional levels, and the dining experience for residents. An Epicure assessment of your aged care facility will help you to reduce resident malnutrition, achieve significant cost savings, and attain a 5-star rating that complies with mandatory Aged Care Quality Standards.
Using the Lantern Alliance Explore app, residents and staff are asked to share a memory about a food and mealtime experience. Their stories and experiences are analysed to guide organisational decision making, priorities and strategies to improve the enjoyment of food in residential aged care setting.
Our workshops and training courses will assist aged care workers and organisations looking to improve their knowledge on nutritional literacy. Topic areas include IDDSI, hospitality 101, food, nutrition and quality standards, measuring the dining experience, and menu planning.
An engaging and rewarding program for aged care staff, volunteers, and community members. Participants are empowered to lead initiatives within their aged care home to identify areas of improvement around food, nutrition and dining.
