Neater Eater - No Colour change - Thank You!

CONCERN OVER HEALTH RISK TO PATIENTS

The charity Age Concern have highlighted the serious health risks to elderly patients who are often not given proper assistance in hospital when eating. Age Concern says: "Hard-hitting statistics show that six out of ten older patients are at risk of becoming malnourished or their situation getting worse while in hospital."

Jon Michaelis, Managing Director of Neater Solutions said:

"Another report shows the importance of proper nutrition to people's health. Therapists often report to us that their clients are at risk of becoming malnourished if they lose independence in eating. People often lose interest in eating if they cannot feed themsleves. In many cases, the equipment we provide - from Dignity Ware to Neater Eaters, can be a significant help in tackling this problem.
