Who can participate

The audit is unit based, thus each hospital unit can decide about joining the project year after year. Home care, day care- and outpatient care institutions is planned for the future. A seperate section and different questionnaires for ICU wards and nursing homes exists.

It is important to include all patients present in the unit on nutritionDay in order to obtain a comprehensive picture of the unit. The international design of the questionnaires also enables the inclusion of minority groups and non native speakers. Patients less than 7 years of age are excluded for all hospital units.
