Really enjoyed being a part of this simulated scenario in #wicop.HSCPs , nurses and doctors working together identifying and treating malnutrition in an older adult. @CookeJohnP @mariedoyle74 @indi_OPNIG @trust_indi
Yesterday, the #WICOP MDT worked together on a simulated scenario that we encounter often in practice. We had to deal with a simulated 78 year old (me!) who denied any issue with nutrition but had objectively lost weight. His daughter was very worried @SouthEastCH @UHW_Waterford

Being dehydrated has been shown to increase risk of falls in older adults! Having variety & choice, knowing your volumes and avoiding those dehydration myths, can keep you well hydrated! @bda_dietitians #thinkfalls
