Arizona has been part of our story for decades. The legacy of Crandall Corporate Dietitians began with Linda Crandall, an industry pioneer who built one of the nation's most respected nutrition consulting organizations more than 60 years ago. Along with Nutrition Alliance, that legacy helped shape lasting partnerships with healthcare and senior living providers across Arizona.

Today, DiningRD is proud to continue that tradition of leadership and innovation through consulting, technology, education, and Dietitian Intelligence.

Join us at the 2026 Arizona Health Care Association Convention & Expo and stop by Booth #151 to meet our team!

The new 2025–2030 Dietary Guidelines for Americans are here - and while the headlines continue to grab attention, senior living dining requires more than a one-size-fits-all approach. It requires balancing compliance, clinical judgment, and quality of life.

At DiningRD, our Registered Dietitians use multiple evidence-based frameworks - including the Dietary Guidelines, DRIs, CMS regulations, and clinical standards - to build menus that are nutritionally sound, operationally practical, survey-ready, and resident-centered.

From protein priorities to vegetable variety, whole fruit, and fiber - our latest blog breaks down what these updates really mean for senior living communities.
