Have a little read: ... This assignment discusses the importance of eating and drinking, which is an activity of daily living. The nursing process will be briefly described; the assessment stage will be discussed and linked to relevant literature. A nursing model based on Roper et al (2000) will be used as a framework for the assessment stage. The assignment integrates theory to practice by discussing the holistic assessment of eating and drinking based on a patient called Annie.

Annie has malnutrition, problems masticating, arthritis, dysphagia and early stage dementia.

Aggleton et al (2000), agrees
