One of my student wrote:
One of hotel staff helped the elder with eating.
Actually he meant that the elder has problem with eating and drinking because of old age. But the sentence seems improper. I correct the former part like this:
The hotel staff helped to care for the elderly and infirm to eat and drink.
Is it OK> Do you have any other advice?
