That is true that patience is the key with Alzheimer's. My mom has it and I don't know how to take care of her. I'll have to find a community that can do it better than I can. 6/12/2023 04:45:14 am
A thoughtfully planned aged care food menu ensures that residents receive adequate amounts of protein, vitamins, minerals, and fiber necessary for their specific dietary needs. I find it interesting when you said that the food has to be given one at a time and not fill up their plate with everything when giving meals at an Alzheimer's care facility. It seems that even how the food is served would also have to be planned well by the professionals and the staff there to ensure that the elderly will actually eat them. In my opinion, it will definitely be important that we find a place as organized as that to have the assurance that my grandmother will be getting the nutrients she needs and not end up losing weight or having no appetite. 7/28/2023 12:53:34 pm
