The prevention of malnutrition in community-dwelling older adults requires a solid partnership between healthcare and community-based organizations. Over the last few years, the Golden Circle has taken part in a project with the Primary Care Network to screening for nutrition risk and make appropriate referrals for follow-up care. All of our Outreach Client intakes provide the opportunity to go over this optional SCREEN-8 nutrition risk screening tool.

For more information on this tool, connect with one of our Outreach Team members by calling 1-403-343-6074 or emailing info@goldencircle.ca
