AnnotationIn the US, most educational programmes on health related subjects include some coursework on gerontology or geriatric medicine and health. This includes most dietetic and nutrition courses, although the importance placed on this material varies. This short article serves to demonstrate how important it is for students to understand and have experience of helping older people with their food and feeding. (RH).
