Sponsor's own description

Malnutrition in older inpatients is a significant problem espicially among those with dementia. A number of methods have been used to tackle this issue and oral nutritional supplements (ONS) were proven to be the most effective way. However, they are limited by their poor tolerability due to lack of familiarity with these products. An alternative method is to fortify familiar food with protein, energy and micronutrient. thus, the aim of this study to test the feasibility and acceptability of delivering fortified foods to older patients whilst in hospital including those with dementia and frailty. This pilot study will compare the daily protein and energy intake in older people before and after offering fortified food. Furthermore, patients' likeability and staff acceptability of these fortified foods will be assessed.
