The Ageing and Dementia Research Centre has worked in聽collaboration with Wessex聽Academic Health Science Network and the聽Patients Association聽to develop the Nutrition Wheel.
The Nutrition Wheel is an interactive version of the聽Patients Association Nutrition Checklist聽and has been designed to be a conversation starter (it is not a screening or diagnostic tool). This has been created due to the growing聽need to improve the way that malnutrition is identified and treated to safeguard our present and future population of older people.聽
For further information about the Nutrition Wheel please visit the聽Wessex聽Academic Health Science Network's webpage for the advice sheet, explanatory guide聽and to order yourself a copy ().
The Nutrition Wheel will be launched聽nationally by the聽Malnutrition Task Force聽in September 2019.
