The ergotherapist organizes therapeutic activities tailored to patients' needs, with a view to optimizing their level of autonomy. Loss of autonomy is closely linked to nutritional status, which often tends towards malnutrition in patients admitted to CRCU, with deleterious consequences for the elderly.
