This updated edition carries on the tradition of providing sound and practical guidance for new and experienced practitioners on all aspects of food and nourishment for ageing adults.

Whether residing at home, in assisted living or in a nursing facility, older adults have unique nutrition needs.

  • Strategies for implementing the updated Nutrition Care Process.
  • Understanding and developing systems to implement quality assurance and performance improvement.
  • Changes in Medicare and health-care reform resulting from the Affordable Care Act are addressed.
