Summary

This study aims to learn how often older adults (age 60+) in the emergency department have trouble swallowing or with mouth health. Researchers will use simple tests like a water swallow test and mouth exams, plus surveys, to find links with other health issues. The goal is to better understand these problems, not to test a treatment.
