EuGMS SIG on GR survey on "Nutritional care in geriatric rehabilitation across Europe"

We would like to invite you to participate in the survey on nutritional care in geriatric rehabilitation across Europe.

To our current knowledge nutritional care in geriatric rehabilitation differ widely across European regions. Up to now no systematic survey has been undertaken in this regard. The COVID-19 pandemic has placed additional pressures on rehabilitation services for older people and we have developed this survey to help harmonize recommendations across Europe at this important time.

The results of these survey will be published in an international Geriatric Medicine and Rehabilitation Journal in 2021. Additionally we plan a symposium on this topic 2021 at the EuGMS E-Congress.

Together with our planned "European best practice guideline on Geriatric Rehabilitation" this will help geriatricians and politicians alike to understand where deficits may be found and how nutritional care in older persons might be developed.

The questionnaire on„Nutritional care in geriatric rehabilitation across Europe"should mainly filled out by nutritional care experts (dietician, nutritionist, dietetic assitant) and if not available by persons who are responsible for nutritional care in the geriatric rehabilitation center.

It consists of 32 questions, some with subquestions. The questionnaire needs to be filled out in one session, it is not possible to save your answers in between. It takes around 20-35 minutes to complete the questionnaire.
