First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether a 4-session education program can help older adults (60+) drink more water and understand dehydration. Thirty residents from an independent living facility will attend classes on dehydration risks, signs, and benefits of water. Researchers will measure changes in knowledge and water intake before and after the program.

Active substance

Hydration education program

What this could lead to

If successful, this could show that simple education programs improve hydration knowledge and water intake in older adults, potentially reducing dehydration risks.

What could go wrong

This is a very small pilot study (30 people) with no control group, so results may not apply broadly. It only measures short-term changes in knowledge and water intake, not health outcomes.
