New Tool: Nutrition Check-up for Older Adults Now Available

Alberta Health Services (AHS) is excited to announce the launch of the Nutrition Check-up for Older Adults, a quick and easy online screening tool designed to support the health and independence of older Albertans.

As we age, changes in appetite, weight, swallowing, and meal habits can quietly impact our nutrition—often going unnoticed until they lead to

more serious concerns like frailty or falls. This new tool helps identify those risks early.

In just a few minutes, older adults can complete a simple questionnaire and receive a personalized report with practical tips, helpful resources,

and guidance on where things are going well—and where there may be room for improvement.

Take the Nutrition Check-up today at ahs.ca/OlderAdultNutrition, and encourage the older adults in your life—parents, grandparents, friends, or caregivers—to do the same.

If you are interested in using the tool in your program or practice and want support, contact publichealth.nutrition@ahs.ca
