Description

In order for elderly people requiring long-term care to live in a familiar environment while maintaining vibrant lives and dignity, eating until the final moment with their mouth is a key factor. To eat with their mouth indefinitely, not only improvement of masticatory and deglutition function based on its appropriate estimation, but also adjustment of food size and texture to their limited ability is necessary for safety and to prevent a state of low nutrition. We have received a grant-in-aid for lifelong practitioner education from Okayama Prefecture and have started an educational workshop to experience small group discussion mimicking multidisciplinary cooperation based on meal rounds regarding the nutritional management of elderly people requiring long-term care. Since the workshop is connecting medicine, dentistry and nutrition science, it is supported by the regional medical, dental and dietetic associations and is stimulating multidisciplinary cooperation in nursing care facilities and home care sites.
