Sponsor's own description
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether a four-week individual nutritional intervention can reduce the readmission/hospitalization rate among geriatric patients who are discharged to their private home or respite care. Secondarily, whether an individual nutritional intervention can improve nutritional status, functional status, quality of life, muscle strength and reduce mortality in geriatric patients after discharge Two sub-points are investigated using feasibility studies - if photography documentation of meals can be used in practice to assess the energy and protein intake of geriatric patients and whether photography documentation of the refrigerator content at first home visits in the intervention group can predict whether there is an increased risk of readmission.
