Legal issues involving dietary issues in long term care are increasing. DNS is at the cutting edge of this arena and has been providing expert witness services to the legal community for over 5 years.


Our services are mapped to the normal progress of a legal case.

Case Reviews – Reviewing medical records can be a tedious task, but at DNS, providing an opinion or report is accomplished only after thorough and detailed review of records involved. The skill set required to perform this review is one which requires not only knowledge of dietary regulations and practices, but in-depth field experience, medical practice knowledge and long term care facility practice knowledge.

Depositions –Having an expert interviewed involves risk. A deep understanding of the industry and dietary services in the nursing home setting allows us to instill confidence with clients and speak with authority when interviewed. One of the keys is having thorough knowledge of the medical records.

Trials – Occasionally a case will continue through the legal process to the final stage of a trial. We will provide dietary support throughout the process, up to and including on-site support for the trial phase.

Throughout the entire process you will work with the same consultant. We understand we play a supporting role and are comfortable in providing expert support to the legal team.
