Book Description
The primary focus of this demonstration project was the provision of adequate. well-balanced. and medically appropriate meals for the homebound aged. The major objectives of the project were to assess and document the feasibility of various systems of food preparation, packaging, and delivery as a vehicle for meeting the nutritional needs of the homebound aged in the city of St. Petersburg, Florida. Recipients received one home delivered meal each weekday. To implement the program, criteria for acceptance were adopted based on psychological, physiological, or sociological need, age, and geographic restrictions. A system of screening prospective clients in their own homes was adopted. Among the components evaluated were various packaging systems, on site preparation of special diets, and meal delivery systems utilizing both project staff and volunteers. Project assessment was both objective (cost per meal, temperature obtained, hours of labor required, etc.) and subjective (reported benefit, perceived ease of administration, etc.). Findings indicated that certain packaging systems were more adaptable than others for home delivered meals. Special diets prepared on site were found to be unfeasible. A volunteer delivery system proved to be more efficient and effective, and significantly less costly than a system utilizing project vehicles and staff. Guidelines based on project experience were developed. The results of this demonstration should be of assistance to social service workers. public health officials, nurses, physicians, hospitals, and others who are interested in developing nutrition programs for the elderly.
