Are they eating & drinking enough?
Have they lost weight or interest in food?
Are they able to shop, cook & prepare meals?

We have developed an animation that explains how to use tools to help start conversations about eating well in later life, to help identify whether someone is at risk of undernutrition, and promote self-screening of older people in the community.

We know that a large majority of malnourished people live in the community and as a result, may be hard to reach with services. @bapen.bsky.social has a self-screening tool that people can use themselves or with family to understand their risk.

Malnutrition screening is quick and simple - helping teams spot risk and tailor nutrition care plans. It's important to remember that screening should be repeated, especially for those identified as at risk or moving between care settings.
