Hydration for Health and Social Care Professionals

Hydration is vital at any age, but we know it can be a particular issue in later life – 1 in 4 older people are dehydrated.

These downloadable resources aim to help health professionals assess whether their clients are drinking enough to stay healthy. If not, they outline practical ways to support them so they increase their fluid intake. 

The materials have been created by the University of East Anglia and Age UK Norwich in collaboration with over 50s, as part of the “Drinking Well at Our Age’ project.
