  • Title: [The multidisciplinary guidelines on nutrition for patients indicated for nursing home care, 2001].
    Author: Schols JM, van Staveren WA.
    Journal: Tijdschr Gerontol Geriatr; 2002 Sep; 33(4):166-74. PubMed ID: 12378788.
    Abstract:
    This article describes the most important aspects of these guidelines. The guidelines are composed of two complementary lines of care. The first line focusses on the basic nutritional care in nursing homes and the second specifically on the patient with nutritional problems. The purpose is to help nursing homes in formulating a sensible and patient-centred nutritional policy; and to realize alertness on nutritional problems in patients, so that necessary interventions can be undertaken in time. Attention is also paid to the importance of an adequate implementation of the guidelines.
