The Employer of Choice Research
In this report, we explored the issue of acquisition, retention, and turnover among employees. Many, if not most senior living communities are challenged to attract and/or retain competent and engaged personnel in the areas of nursing, housekeeping, and dining. The subsequent costs of turnover are bad enough. But most senior living executives acknowledge that the most significant exposure to risk in this situation stems from this fact: organizational reputation and resident satisfaction hinge far more upon employees than on upper management.
Nutrition and Dementia: A Review of Available Research

In this first summary document we have introduced a number of areas of research on the relevance of nutritional factors to primary and secondary prevention of dementia, undernutrition in dementia and interventions to improve the nutrition of people with dementia.
