Raise staff awareness of referral to community nutrition and dietetic services

  • While staff should feel confident giving general dietary advice, some people may benefit from tailored expert advice and/ or more intensive support.
  • The Eatwell guide (WG 2018) notes that people with special dietary requirements or medical needs might need support from a registered dietitian on how to adapt the guide to meet their individual needs. 
  • BDA Food Fact Sheets written by dieticians are available for download and cover healthy eating as well as a wide range of nutrition-related topics.
