I wrote this as a training module for teaching nursing assistants the importance of nutrition and hydration in caring for the elderly. I included both general nutrition knowledge and special considerations for the elderly population. I really think those caring for the elderly should be specifically trained in how nutritional status can really affect that population.

Nutrition Assessment and History Form
For long term care, or where I see a client multiple times, I like having a form where I can put all the relevant information about the person and changes/needs they have in one place. This form I adapted to meet my needs from another one someone had given me. Feel free to make copies and use it, or adapt it for your needs.
