Health factors that play a role in changes in nutritional status include the increasing incidence of degenerative and non-degenerative diseases that result in changes in food intake, changes in the absorption of nutrients at the tissue level, and some cases can be caused by certain drugs that must be minimized by the elderly due to the disease they are suffering from. Fulfillment of good nutritional needs needs to be supported by knowledge of nutrition itself so that it can provide complete benefits for the elderly. After health counseling is carried out, it is hoped that it can improve the health degree and quality of elderly services as a process of early detection and health improvement. This activity will be carried out in August 2024. The implementation method is carried out by lectures and discussions.
