What Role Do Caregivers and Family Play in Managing Malnutrition?
Caregivers and family members play a crucial role in supporting cancer patients in managing malnutrition. They can help by:
Preparing meals that cater to the patient's preferences and nutritional needs. Encouraging the patient to eat small, frequent meals throughout the day. Monitoring the patient's weight and dietary intake to identify any concerning changes. Providing emotional support to help reduce stress and improve the patient's appetite.
