The report, Prevention
and Early Intervention of Malnutrition in Later Life: Best Practices &
Implementation Guide jointly written by the Malnutrition Task Force and
the British Dietetic Association is meant
to bring awareness to the issue of malnutrition and dehydration and how it can
be resolved.
The Malnutrition
Task Force is an independent group of experts from the UK who have united
to address the prevention of malnutrition and dehydration of older adults in
hospitals, care homes and in the community. They have identified the
social and psychological reasons why malnutrition and dehydration happens, and
have created best practice guidelines on how this problem can be
corrected. It provides real, practical advice and support for health care
and social care groups to better tackle the problem.
