Recently my father in law was in DHH Male Medical for a short period. He praised the nursing team and the care he received. However he has made comment regarding food quality. He has reported that most of his meals were very dry and often food was hard and he was unable to eat the food. He has had previous admissions to DHH and noted that this was the first time he noticed such a deterioration in food quality. Others on the ward also commented on the food.
Given that nutrition is so vital in the well being and physical health of any older adult it may be timely to review storing /heating of food timescales as well as menus
