Nutrition Screening Initiative

The Nutrition Screening Initiative (NSI) is a program aimed at identifying older adults at risk of malnutrition. By utilizing straightforward questionnaires and assessments, the NSI helps health professionals and caregivers recognize nutritional deficiencies early. This early detection is crucial for preventing health issues and improving overall well-being in seniors. The initiative also promotes awareness about the importance of good nutrition and offers guidelines to support better eating habits. Ultimately, the NSI seeks to enhance the quality of life for older adults by ensuring they receive the nutrients they need.
