[quote=Anonymous]I have a similar situation. I’m keeping parent at home for as long as possible. They aren’t motivated to eat, so I make sure one meal a day is prepared and supervised. Cooking the food helps create odors that stimulate the appetite. I also leave snacks out where they can see them, this helps. At least once a day, someone sits with them while they eat. I make sure to buy their favorites, and set up a reminder on their Alexa to “take your meds with food” at pill time every day. They’ve gained 15 lbs in 6 months with these tactics. [/quote]
