National survey of malnutrition and nutritional care in adults

National survey of malnutrition and nutritional care in adults This report outlines the findings of a survey that aimed to take the temperature on the status of nutritional care across all health and social care settings in the UK. The survey found that 40 per cent of patients were at risk of malnutrition but also that the majority of patients had a nutritional care plan in place, particularly for those who were at medium or high-risk of malnutrition.
