Managing Adult Malnutrition in the Community is a practical toolkit to support healthcare professionals to identify and manage those at risk of malnutrition
#DietitiansWeek begins today - a chance to recognise a profession that is more than just a job. Dietitians bring clinical expertise, compassion & practical problem‑solving to every conversation about nutrition. Their work is central to identifying & treating malnutrition. This week we celebrate their impact, their leadership & the difference they make every single day. Our June Resource of the Month showcases the essential role they play in malnutrition care - https://t.co/gLWI6GGpQK

Malnutrition care is a team effort & dietitians are at the heart of it. They train colleagues, support decision‑making, advise on appropriate use of oral nutritional supplements and help ensure consistent care across settings Their expertise supports GPs, nurses, pharmacists and carers to act early and confidently #DietitiansWeek #DW2026
Dietitians are often the first to spot the subtle signs of malnutrition - changes in appetite, weight, strength, mood or ability to manage daily tasks. Their assessments guide evidence‑based interventions that help people stay well, recover faster and maintain independence #DietitiansWeek #DW2026
