Malnutrition Awareness Week is September 23-27! The goal of this week is to educate healthcare physicians to identify and treat for malnutrition earlier; educate consumers/patients to discuss their nutrition status with healthcare professionals; and to increase awareness of nutrition’s role on patient recovery.
The Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics released a Malnutrition Supplement to their 2019 issue. Check out the articles highlighting quality initiatives, reducing readmissions, improving clinical care for malnutrition, and so much more.
