Seafood
Serving fish in a care home is essential for supporting residents’ overall health and nutrition. Fish provides a lean source of protein, which is vital for maintaining muscle mass and strength as people age.
Fish, especially fatty fish like salmon, sardines, and mackerel, is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which are known to support brain health. Omega-3s may reduce the risk of cognitive decline and support memory, making it particularly valuable for elderly residents.
It’s also a great source of Vitamin D and often easier to digest than other protein sources. Including fish on the menu once or twice a week in different forms (e.g., baked, grilled, or in soups) can ensure residents receive these health benefits while enjoying a varied and nutritious diet.
