Well for life - promoting better nutrition educational package

The Well for Life - promoting better nutrition educational package assists dietitians to promote the benefits of good nutrition for older people and carers. The package helps dietitians (as facilitators) to conduct workshops with primary health and community service providers. The package is designed to be used by people without a background in education or training, but who do have specialist knowledge in nutrition for frail older people in the community. This nutrition package provides an introduction to nutritional needs of frail older people, identifying nutritional risk, implementing simple interventions and monitoring.
