Achieving Proper Nutrition for Seniors: The Necessity of Meal Planning

Today we are highlighting a great resource written by Alexandra Gregg a registered dietician and published by one of our industry partners SeniorAdvice.com. Alexandra highlights the second pillar we have posted about which is the importance of Food in the aging process. The below will highlight the benefits of proper nutrition and how it will improve the aging process. This is why Legacy has a registered dietician review all our menus with our Physician Assistant, to evaluate residents’ preferences and how their medications may affect their hunger to ensure they are receiving the proper nutrition and managing things like fall risk. The last item worth noting is food is an important tool in managing inflammation which is a leading cause of early-onset dementia. If you have questions make sure to reach out to Katie today either at info@LegacySeniorHomes.com or ‭(405) 438-3157‬ and she can help personalize an ‘Aging with Grace’ plan for your family.
