MethodsThis is a descriptive and cross-sectional study that was carried out in five elderly homes. Two hundred fortyfour seniors were included, corresponding to 25% of the institutionalized seniors in Distrito Federal in 2002.The meal production facility was evaluated based on its hygienic and environmental-structural conditions. Theinclusion of healthcare professionals among the staff of the elderly homes, the number of meals offered daily,the meal consistency options and the presence of a printed weekly menu were investigated. A qualitativeevaluation of the nutritional adequacy of the institutional feeding was done based on the Food Guide Pyramidrecommendations. ResultsPrecarious hygienic and environmental-structural conditions were identified. Healthcare professionals werescarce in all homes. Most homes offered five daily meals with two consistency options: normal and semiliquid. Only two homes had a printed weekly menu. The nutritional evaluation of meals showed that the mostinadequate percentages of food groups offered were vegetables, with a median offer of only 53% of therecommendation, followed by fruits, with 60% of the recommendation. The offered percentage of the oil andfat group was considered excessive (120% of the recommendation). ConclusionAbundant inadequate factors in meal production facilities, the poor inclusion of healthcare professionals andthe imbalance in the food groups offered point to a worrying situation for the quality of life of institutionalizedseniors in Distrito Federal.

MétodosTrata-se de um estudo descritivo, transversal, realizado em cinco instituições geriátricas, incluindo 244 idosos, o que corresponde a 25,0% dos idosos institucionalizados no Distrito Federal em 2002. O setor de produção de refeições foi avaliado pelas condições higiênicas e ambientais/estruturais. Investigou-se a inclusão de profissionais de saúde no quadro de funcionários das instituições, o número de refeições oferecidas por dia aos idosos, as opções de consistência da alimentação e a presença de um cardápio semanal impresso. Foi realizada uma avaliação qualitativa da adequação nutricional da alimentação oferecida em comparação com as recomendações da Pirâmide Alimentar. ResultadosObservaram-se condições higiênicas e ambientais/estruturais precárias, além da escassez de profissionais de saúde em todas as instituições. A maioria destas oferecia cinco refeições diárias, com opções de consistência normal e semilíquida. Apenas duas instituições apresentavam cardápios semanais impressos. A avaliação nutricional qualitativa mostrou que os grupos de alimentos com maior inadequação na oferta foram: hortaliças, com oferta média de apenas 53,0% da recomendação, e frutas, com 60,0% da recomendação. A oferta de alimentos do grupo dos óleos e gorduras foi considerada excessiva (120,0% da recomendação). ConclusãoA abundância de fatores inadequados no funcionamento do setor de produção de refeições, a falta de profissionais da saúde e o desequilíbrio entre grupos alimentares oferecidos apontam para um quadro preocupante quanto à qualidade de vida dos idosos institucionalizados do Distrito Federal.Núcleo de Editoração – PUC-Campinas2023-09-20info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/nutricao/article/view/9792Brazilian Journal of Nutrition; Vol. 19 No. 1 (2006): Revista de NutriçãoRevista de Nutrição; Vol. 19 Núm. 1 (2006): Revista de NutriçãoRevista de Nutrição; v. 19 n. 1 (2006): Revista de Nutrição1678-9865reponame:Revista de Nutriçãoinstname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)instacron:PUC_CAMPporhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/nutricao/article/view/9792/7132Copyright (c) 2023 Natacha TORAL, Muriel Bauermann GUBERT, Bethsáida de Abreu Soares SCHMITZhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessTORAL, Natacha Bauermann GUBERT, Muriel Soares SCHMITZ, Bethsáida de Abreu2023-09-20T17:23:45Zoai:ojs.periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br:article/9792Revistahttp://www.scielo.br/rnPRIhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/nutricao/oai||sbi.submissionrn@puc-campinas.edu.br1678-98651415-5273opendoar:2023-09-20T17:23:45Revista de Nutrição - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)false
