Both health conditions are common in community-dwelling older adults and are associated with significant declines in physical functioning, independence, and quality of life. Healthcare professionals tend to manage malnutrition and sarcopenia separately, leading to missed opportunities for early (risk) identification and coordinated care. An interprofessional care pathway can provide an evidence-based, structured framework to support such integration. Therefore, we aimed to co-design an interprofessional care pathway for addressing (risk of) malnutrition or sarcopenia in community-dwelling older adults within the Dutch primary care context.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We applied a design-oriented approach using the Double Diamond model to guide the development process across the discover, define, and develop phases. Methods included persona development and validation, desk research, patient journey mapping, service blueprinting, and prototyping. In addition, we introduced an interprofessional visualisation combining elements of the patient journey map and service blueprint to represent both front-stage and back-stage care processes along a timeline. The data were analysed iteratively.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Thirteen healthcare professionals, including district nurses, dietitians, physiotherapists, general practice assistants, dementia case managers, general practitioners, and a geriatric specialist, participated in the co-design process. The process comprised three in-person sessions and two online follow-up meetings. In addition, one community-dwelling older adult was interviewed. The co-design process resulted in a prototype interprofessional care pathway that offers a structured workflow for detecting, screening, and managing (risk of) malnutrition and sarcopenia. The pathway addresses interprofessional, person-centred, and integrated care by a designated point of contact, shared treatment plans, continuous interprofessional communication, shared decision-making, clearly defined roles, and regular team evaluation. The pathway includes practical tools such as detection cards, templates and formats for task allocation, work agreements, and team evaluation.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study presents a co-designed prototype of an interprofessional care pathway to address (risk of) malnutrition and sarcopenia in community-dwelling older adults.
