This team is currently implementing and evaluating a ParticipatoryAction Research project, funded by the Australian Government Department of Health and Ageing under the Encouraging Best Practice in Residential Aged Care (EBPRAC) Program, to support development and implementation of best practice nutrition and hydration in nine agedcare facilities throughout NSW. In each facility, project activities are locally chosen, based on best practice guidelines, with sustainability as a key feature.
