Putting Nutrition Guidelines into Practice

In another Webinar about the role of nutrition, Dr. Mary Litchford starts by describing ways to encourage hospital medical staff to give order writing privileges to registered licensed dieticians. In addition, she discusses strategies to identify new admissions who are at risk for malnutrition and pressure injuries; examines the role of nutrition in reducing readmission rates; and uses a case study to show how to apply nutrition guidelines to prevent pressure injuries.
