Malnutrition/Dehydration Concerns
Malnutrition is an extremely serious problem in nursing homes. At times, it takes great effort to get individuals to eat. It is a slow process and each person may require special care. Failure to adequately feed residents in a nursing home can cause heart failure, organ failure and breathing problems. Nutrients are essential for providing individuals with adequate strength. Those who lack adequate nutrition have a diminished chance of remaining healthy or recovering from any issues they are facing.
How Is This Possible?
At times malnutrition and dehydration concerns stem from the following organizational problems:
- Staffing problems: Undertrained, understaffed and overworked individuals are charged with working at nursing homes. Malnutrition can occur if employees fail to keep adequate records, which can be extremely problematic for the residents.
- Failure to perform job: Another problem in nursing homes is simply a failure to feed the patients. Some individuals will not wake up the patients to feed them even though it is crucial for their health and survival.
