Abstract

If you are recovering from an illness, treatment or after an ICU admission, you often experience a number of problems. The program 'Eat well for yourself: contact with fellow sufferers through cooking workshops when eating becomes a challenge' offers people the opportunity to further work on their recovery through peer meetings in the form of cooking workshops. We focus mainly on the core values ​​of the ZonMw program 'For Each Other': self-management and empowerment of people with eating problems after illness. The website www.vierkeerbeter.nl which was developed last year, offers people home help during recovery after an ICU admission (including COVID-19). The platform offers knowledge and tips to actively work on obstacles such as loss of taste and smell, muscle loss, swallowing problems, etc. Purpose: transfer to hospitals/care institutions.
