简要总结

The aim of this study is to determine the nutritional status, and factors affecting malnutrition in older people staying in hospitals.

Objectives:

  • To recruit a sample of older people in hospital
  • To collect information on nutritional status, satisfaction with food-related life and experience with access to food in hospital.
  • To assess the staffing attitudes to nutritional care of the older adult
  • To undertake an audit of therapeutic ('special') diets served in hospitals, with respect to their nutritional adequacy and wastage
  • To investigate predictors and correlates of malnutrition within the hospital setting and compare these relationships with those previously identified in care homes and the community.
  • To make recommendations for practice to improve the nutritional status of hospitalised older adults.
