Dining With Dementia

Friday, 1:00pm to 3:00pm
Monmouth 5
Session 42
Meals are much more than nutrition; they are an everyday opportunity for socialization and celebration. Create an atmosphere of focused engagement in your healthcare community by implementing components of a supportive dining program. This session will guide you through discussions about food presentation and service, the social interaction between staff and residents, the flow of the meal and the effect that the physical environment has on resident intake. You will walk away with new ideas to create a successful dining experience.
