Cooking for the elderly and/or those with dementia is often labeled by many caregivers as 'challenging.' It can be ungratifying when all the efforts put into planning, shopping, and preparation
Our Solvang home is now a true home. We have welcomed some beautiful residents, the sun is shining in our outdoor spaces, and there is always something cooking — an aroma that is comforting and brings beautiful memories from the past.
Cooking for the elderly and/or those with dementia is often labeled by many caregivers as"challenging." It can be ungratifying when all the efforts put into planning, shopping and preparation result in uneaten foods. Worse yet are concerns about nutrition. Often it is not just diminished appetite, but flavors, health, swallowing and dental issues can be a cause for uneaten foods. Among the many challenges are the common difficulties in handling utensils.
Whether it be lack of energy, inability to fully communicate, deficiency in dexterity, etc., those living with dementia are more susceptible to poor nutrition. I encourage you to experiment and consider safety and comfort as a guiding light, which in turn will lead to better nutrition.
