Malnutrition Week ANZ 2022
From Monday 10th to Friday 14th October, we'll be pulling out all the stops to raise awareness of the role nutrition plays in prevention and treatment of malnutrition.
Malnutrition can have a significant burden on patients, carers, families and the entire healthcare system. While dietitians live and breathe nutrition, they can’t be the only healthcare professionals to ‘champion’ nutrition in hospitals and community settings. That’s why the theme of this year’s Malnutrition Week ANZ campaign is: Be a nutrition champion!
Nurses, allied health and food service professionals, can play a key role in championing nutrition and improving the quality of life of the patients they care for. Helping them to upskill in identifying malnutrition risk is invaluable.
