Evaluation of the Applicability of Personalized Tools About Nutrition Education for Malnourished Older People

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
Describe the frequency of use of nutrition education tools for undernourished older people

Detailed Description
-----------------
The description of the population will identify the characteristics of patients who use the tools and guide their use in patient care. To realize an impact assessment, It necessary to identify specific criteria for inclusion. It is important initially to assess the use of the nutritional tools. The assessment of performance (obstacles and understanding), will be used to improve tools to optimize their use.
