On Monday 26 February here at Hengist Field Care Home, we decided to create a nutrition and hydration trolley, ahead of Nutrition & Hydration Week next month.
It’s so important that we are all well hydrated and eat well, but a little of what you fancy does you good (even if it’s bit naughty!). We had a lovely fruit platter offering fresh watermelon, strawberries, grapes, bananas and blueberries. We also had a ‘Naughty but nice’ treat platter featuring mini Battenberg cakes, millionaire shortbread bites, chocolate buttons, flapjacks and Kit-Kats with some Nutella or Biscoff to dip them in if wished.
For refreshment we served a choice of refreshing fruit punch, coconut and caramel milkshake and pineapple and coconut punch.
Our lovely residents were excited when they saw what was on offer, and thoroughly enjoyed their snacks and drinks.
