THE NUTRITIONAL status of residents of old people's homes, compared to individuals living at home, has been assessed. The residents had significantly lower means intakes of ascorbic acid, thiamin, pyridoxin, folic acid, nicotinic acid and protein. These findings were reflected in markedly lower circulating levels of ascorbic acid and folic acid in the residents. The data suggests that there should be reappraisal of the nourishment provided for the elderly in Part III accommodation.
