Following retirement in 2006, Dr. Rosenberg has worked part-time doing nonmedical care and companionship for the homebound elderly and those in assisted-living facilities.

Objective: Homebound elderly are at increased risk for micronutrient deficiencies and nutritional status in this population has not been adequately described.
