Food Related Challenges and Issues Faced by New Brunswick Seniors Living in their Own Home
Lita Villalon, Suzanne Dupuis-Blanchard, Caroline Gibbons, Odette Gould, Majella Simard and Sophie Éthier
The number of seniors is projected to increase over the next decade and continue to rise in the following decades. The issues and challenges faced by New Brunswick seniors living in their own home were studied recently. Too many seniors are not able to afford healthy food or enough food to maintain their health as they age. Healthy eating is one of the main factors in ensuring healthy aging and should therefore be an important consideration when determining a senior’s capacity to remain in his or her own home. Little is known about how seniors, and particularly frail seniors, manage the challenges of maintaining healthy eating habits in their home. An exploratory qualitative study was conducted among seniors aged 65 and over living in New Brunswick.
