how wonderful that you keep close tabs on your dad while he's in assisted living. it's great he has someone to help advocate for his health needs. it wouldn't hurt to get your dad's dizziness symptoms checked out by a health care provider. it's one of those things that could be related to his breakfast meal (such as perhaps low blood sugar) or it could be coincidental. for instance dehydration can also cause the type of symptoms you describe and dehydration is very common in elderly people. you might encourage your dad to drink plenty of water. the main thing is this: since the symptoms are bothering him and no one wants to see him fall and break a bone or gash his head it's probably a good idea to have a health care provider evaluate this. all the best to you and your dad!
what causes weak and dizzy feeling? . my father is 95 years old and is a resident in an assisted living facility. after he eats breakfast he says he feels very weak and dizzy. he is ok prior to breakfast but symptoms start when returning to his room afterwards. symptoms usually go away by lunchtime and dont return. does not seem to be tied to when he takes his morning medication.
