The International Dysphagia Diet Standardisation Initiative (IDDSI) is gearing up for its third IDDSI Congress & Festival, set to take place in Derby, UK, on Thursday, September 21st, 2023. This event promises to be a remarkable gathering for healthcare professionals, dietitians, speech and language therapists, caterers, chefs, patient groups, suppliers, and anyone involved in implementing the IDDSI framework. We will be among the exhibitors at this year’s festival displaying our brand new Dysphagia Drinks Machine.

What is the IDDSI Festival?

The IDDSI Congress & Festival is an event that underscores the commitment of healthcare professionals and organizations to improving the lives of individuals with dysphagia. Dysphagia, a condition where individuals have difficulty swallowing, can have a profound impact on a person’s quality of life. The IDDSI framework has emerged as a beacon of hope in this realm, providing standardized terminology and definitions for food and drink textures, facilitating improved patient care and safety worldwide.

We are a leading player in the field of refreshment solutions, and have now introduced a new machine to market, to make a difference in dysphagia care.

Its precision in achieving the specified IDDSI textures ensures that individuals with dysphagia can enjoy meals that are not only safe but also delicious.
  2. Hot and Cold Drink Samples: We will be serving samples of the wide range of hot and cold drink we have available. These beverages are carefully crafted to meet IDDSI standards, providing a delightful experience for those with dysphagia.
  3. Engage with Experts: Interact with Refreshment Systems’ knowledgeable team members, who can provide insights into how their solutions can be integrated into your healthcare or catering facility.
  4. Networking Opportunities: Connect with other healthcare professionals, suppliers, and experts in the field of Dysphagia care to exchange ideas and best practices.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY

Our customers are at the heart of everything that we do. If they are not achieving their goals then neither are we. Their satisfaction is very important to us and we believe that delivering what our customers want and need, means that we can form a long-lasting partnership.

I would recommend Refreshment Systems to any car dealership that is looking to enhance their customer experience with a high quality drink offering of bean to cup. We have worked with them for a number of years and installed a new machine last year which we could not be happier with.

We got our machines very quickly, installed and working in no time, the aftercare is superb, we have weekly visits from our very entertaining replenishment engineer, nothing is too much trouble and we would highly recommend Refreshment Systems to any new/existing business.
