Ice Cream: More than just a tasty treat!
Providing regular snacks throughout the day can help to support the hydrational and nutritional needs of those living in elderly care settings. During the Summer months, ice cream may already be a go-to snack in your home. But have you ever considered the additional benefits of serving ice cream to your residents?
Hygiene
During the pandemic, the importance of hygiene became more important than ever in all walks of life, particularly in elderly care settings.
Offering individually wrapped ice creams reduces the need to over-handle food, significantly reducing hygiene risks. The Solero, Cornetto and Feast are all individually wrapped making them the perfect choice for your residents.
Calories and hydration
20% of care home residents suffer from malnutrition which can be linked to weight loss, nutritional deficiencies, delayed wound healing and an increased risk of infection.
Offering higher-calorie snacks may help to prevent malnutrition. Many Wall’s high-quality ice creams are richer in calories than other ice cream brands, delivering both nutritional and hydrational benefits.
Happy memories
Wall’s has an impressive 100 years of heritage! There's a good chance that some of the Wall's brands will evoke memories for your residents.
Spread some happiness in your home, and encourage your residents to rekindle memories of past summers as they eat and enjoy ice cream.
