Abstract
The nutritional condition of adults over 65 has changed as a result of physiologic and psychological changes. Actually, this group is more at danger from malnutrition than from fat. This article looks at the nutritional needs for seniors as well as the risk factors for malnutrition, including food, financial constraints, social isolation, chronic disease, and physiologic changes. Assessment and nursing interventions are also presented.
