What a review costs.

Most homes run two menus a year, a summer one and a winter one, so that is what the year price covers — two reviews, each including up to three revision rounds within the agreed scope, and a signed letter each time. Four-cycle homes add cycles at the lower rate. Longer terms and additional sites cost less.

Start with one. The rest gets cheaper.

Priced by the menu, not by the bed — a 200-bed home and a 60-bed home running the same cycle are the same review. Buy one when you need one; if your menu changes with the seasons, the per-cycle price falls the more of the year you cover. Sites sharing one menu share one review.

Sign-off

$600
one cycle
One cycle, reviewed and signed

The signed review letter and the findings behind it. No cleaned menu, no records pack — the signature and the reasoning, nothing else.

Review and file

$950
one cycle
One cycle, and the file it belongs in

The letter, plus your cycle rebuilt in one format under your letterhead, and a written statement of which nutrition obligations you currently hold evidence for and which you do not.

Two cycles a year

$1,700
$850 a cycle, per year
Your summer and winter menus

The shape most homes actually run. Two reviews and two files, each with up to three revision rounds within the agreed review scope, and one line in next year’s budget.

Prices in Canadian dollars, for one site. A three-year term is priced lower again and holds your rate for the term. Ask and we will put it in writing.

What every price includes

  • A registered dietitian who reads the menu — never a template, never an automated pass
  • A review letter for every cycle, signed and dated by the reviewing dietitian
  • The audit behind every finding: which standard it comes from, what was measured, on which days
  • Up to three rounds of revisions to address findings within the agreed review scope. Major menu changes or additional review work are scoped and priced separately
  • Where your menu could not answer a question, the report says so rather than guessing
  • No resident information held at any point, and none ever asked for

What you are not paying for

A marked-up copy of the file you sent back to you.

You are paying for three things you keep: a menu you can use, an audit that names the standard behind every finding and the days it was measured on, and a signed letter — the document an operator is actually asked for.

Add what your menu needs

None of these are required. They exist because some menus carry more than one menu inside them.

Longer cycle or therapeutic menus+$250

A cycle beyond six weeks, or renal, diabetic and dysphagia menus read as menus in their own right rather than as notes on the regular one. Texture-modified variants are already included.

Each additional site+$300 / year

Sites sharing one menu share one review. Each gets its own signed letter naming that site.

Resident consultation supportfrom +$600 / year

Help running and recording the six-month resident feedback the standards ask for. The one line priced by home size, because this genuinely does scale with residents.

Additional cycles+$725 each

Homes running four seasonal menus rather than two. The same review and the same file, at the lower per-cycle rate.

Expedited reviewQuoted during your call

Urgent deadlines may be accommodated for an additional fee. Availability, timing and pricing are confirmed during your call before work begins.

What the price does not buy

A finding of compliance. No one outside the regulator can give you that, and any service that offers it is selling something it does not have. What you buy is a registered dietitian’s reading of your menu against the Accommodation Standards, the evidence behind every finding, and their signature and date on the result — which is the document an operator is actually asked for.

Folio never asks for resident information, and deletes anything of that kind sent to us by mistake.
