Nutrition
n Resident preferences are key. There is no point having a nutritionally balanced menu if it does not get eaten!
n Stand back and review your meal services. Observe and improve.
n Aim for small improvements over time. Remember that the Digest is to be used as a tool kit, so the ideas and changes do not need to be implemented all at once.
n Care homes vary and it is definitely not suggesting a one size fits all approach – it must be tailored to each home and the specific needs of the residents.
We would like to end on one of the key points made in the Care Home Digest and leave you with this as food for thought: For most people eating a meal is not simply about meeting nutritional requirements. Enjoyment of the meal, meal experience, and environment are just as important.
