Nutrition and Hydration

Good food and drink keep people well, comfortable, and able to enjoy life — and in care, the person you support may need your help to get enough of both. This course shows you how to support eating and drinking safely and kindly, how to spot the early signs that someone isn't getting what they need, and when to raise a concern. It's plain, practical, and built around real mealtimes in real homes.
