Complete a nutritional assessment and dietary profile on an older adult, including fluid intake and elimination. Determine the nutritional status of this older adult; does this person meet the dietary requirements each day or are they lacking in nutrients?
Write a 1-2 page paper outlining the nutritional status of the person you interviewed. Your paper should include nutrients of excess, nutrients lacking, and ways to improve on each of these. It should also include hydration status as well as ways to combat dehydration and constipation specific to this patient.
