What this Trial Is About
Researchers are studying the effect of hydration education on knowledge and water intake among older adults living independently at Cornwall Manor. This project aims to promote healthy aging by enhancing hydration through educational sessions and improving access to various hydrating drinks for the geriatric population. The study involves a program called Thirst for Knowledge, which includes four educational sessions covering hydration topics such as dehydration risks, signs, benefits of water, recommended intake, and tips to increase consumption. Additionally, weekly hydration happy hours provide participants with recipe books and samples of hydrating drinks to encourage better hydration habits. Participants will be assessed on their hydration knowledge before and after the education sessions, and their water intake will be logged for three days before and after the program. Satisfaction questionnaires and attendance records will also be collected. The study lasts from May to August 2026, and participants will engage in sessions and hydration events during this period.
