“…Mealtime care is provided multiple times every day for residents needing assistance and is a critical component of daily care in promoting function and nutrition. Multilevel factors (i.e., resident, staff, environmental) influence mealtime difficulties (Liu et al., 2016, 2017, 2018) and intake (Liu, Jao, et al., 2019; Liu, Batchelor, et al., 2020; Liu, Perkhounkova, et al., 2020; Liu, Williams, et al., 2019). Person‐centred, individualized mealtime care that acknowledges resident preferences and supports independence through positive engagement and social interactions is critical to promote eating performance and improve intake (Liu et al., 2015, 2017, 2018, 2019; Reimer & Keller, 2009).…”
